I sincerely feel for her loss, but she has competely and utterly ruined the memory of her son with her own antics, or at least she has pushed what should be a memory of him trying to be a hero completely away in favor of becoming a grandstanding bitch that has let herself become nothing more than a tool (and I mean tool in more ways than one).
If she had stopped with the theatrics weeks ago she could have been remembered for the martyr she seems to want to be. Instead, she's now remembered, saying it again, as a tool.
It's a damned shame, and again, I feel greatly for her loss and do not wish that any of our military families suffer the loss of a loved one, either in action, or not. But I have much more respect for the families that took the loss in much more respectful ways. For those families it is much easier to feel sympathies, since they obviously haven't tried to turn those losses into opportunities for personal gain (including personal fame, etc.)
