8. No one is mocking him
He was incredibly rude to her.

And she understands. More than any of us do. She understands what it is like to have a son fighting in an illegal war that is killing 3 or 4 of our soldiers a day. She understands what it is like for your son to call you on the phone when he is 3000 miles away and tell you that the gun is in his mouth and he is about to pull the trigger. She understands what it is like to wait and wait and wait for the VA to help her son who is suicidal from severe PTSD and then when he finally gets an appointment, they tell him he has "childhood issues" and dismiss him with no treatment. She understands plenty.

She also understands that Dems who refuse to stop this insane war in Iraq are no more worthy of our support than Republics who refuse to stop the war.
