What are Cindy Sheehan fans saying about the early sales and high-profile publicity a new book highly critical of the anti-war figure is getting?

They are calling one of the authors "fat." They are calling another one a "whore." They are using the "b-word" about both of them. And those are the calmer reactions.

Supporters of Sheehan have become enraged at the success that the new patriotic book, "American Mourning," the latest release from WND Books written by talk-radio star Melanie Morgan and veteran journalist Catherine Moy.



What does the book say?

One day earlier, peace activist Sheehan said on the nationally syndicated Stephanie Miller radio show that she planned to sue Morgan and Moy "for every nickel they have."

Sheehan stated during the interview that her anger was based on several statements in the book, including a claim that after her son's death, "Cindy had become addicted to online chat rooms of a pornographic nature."

The book also asserts that Sheehan exchanged "hundreds of explicit emails and instant messages" with a married man.

Sheehan in the radio interview called Moy and Morgan "hate-mongers" engaged in "yellow journalism."
