Apparently, Patricia Heaton disagreed with Sally Field's acceptance speech and her plea for the end of the war. This is what she had to say about it.
"I've actually become a more violent person since I became a mother," the "Back to You" star told us. "If someone came between me and my kids, they'd be dead meat. So I didn't agree with that particular statement."
Remind me not to schedule any playdates with her kids! What is she missing here? She's missing that women are less likely to use violence to solve problems. There are many studies that support that fact. She's missing that women are more likely to sit down and talk rather than shoot first and ask questions later.
Are some conservative "Christians" so willing to support the bad road this president is taking us down that they turn a blind eye to the truth? Obviously that answer is yes, but to totally deny that mothers would work more towards peace is sad to me. As mothers, we'd be the ones sending our children off to war and I don't think that ANY mother wants to see another mother lose a child.
If you do, you're a heartless mother. What Sally Field said can be taken in more general terms. It was a call for an end to needless deaths and a plea for peace. Doesn't everyone want to see the world at peace? Is that an awful wish to have?

I think you and Sally Field are the ones who may be missing the point. Sally Field made her naive comment about "mothers". Period. She did not say "American Mothers". She assumed that if "mothers were in charge of wars there wouldn't be any *#$^@* wars". Well, what about the mothers of the terrorists who celebrate the destruction that their children cause? What about the mothers who send their toddlers into market places wearing explosive belts? What about the mothers who take their infants with them onto crowded buses and detonate themself along with their child/children? What about the mothers who accept the cash awarded to them for their terrorist children's actions? What about the mothers who danced in celebration on the evening of 9/11? Mother's all. All perpetuating a very nasty war. None striving for peace. I wonder what Sally Field thinks about those mothers? Did she even considered it? Did you?
Do you think that, as a mother, you could sit down and talk it over with these other mothers and work it all out peacefully? Maybe sing Kumbaya afterward? This isn't a PTA meeting. It's not Oprah's book club. These mothers (and fathers and sons and daughters, etc. .) want us dead.
Thank God there are mothers in this country who raise responsible men and women - not "children" as you libs love to spin. They are men and women who understand that it takes a sacrifice by some to uphold freedom for the rest. The rest including you and Miss Field - eventhough you both shamelessly do not understand or appreciate it.
