I can understand why the President wouldn't want to meet with Cindy Sheehan, after all it seems like a no-win situation from a public relations standpoint and the man is much better at letting others defend his actions, but this is probably the wrong way to explain it.  We're not talking about a failed relationship here?  What's worse is it sounds like the half-hearted bookend to another famous Bush quote from Bob Woodward's Bush At War:

 “I'm the commander. See, I don't have to explain why I say things. That’s the interesting thing about being the president. Maybe somebody needs to explain to me why they say something, but I don’t feel like I owe anybody an explanation.”

Anyway, a friend and avid Ironmouth reader sent me this link to a blog set up to push Cindy's cause and give updates on goings on in Crawford, TX.  Feel free to call or write the White House and tell the President he can get on with his life when his term in office is over.
