FWIW, the seemingly all-encompassing term "the
Sheehan Family" refers, according to Cindy
Sheehan, to her in-laws on Casey's father's
side and several other members of that side of
the family.  She and this set of grandparents
had been at odds politically for some time; they
stopped speaking when the grandparents voted
for Bush in 2004 after Casey was killed.

Don't know about the other side of the family,
but the *immediate* family supports Cindy.

None of the family members on whose behalf the
statement was issued actually signed it by name,
interestingly.  The person who distributed it
did give her name, claiming to be Casey's 
godmother.  Cindy Sheehan says it's her sister-
in-law.
