A few days ago, i watched some of Yomama's first news conference. Since it was the first time The Chosen One was addressing his foremost worshipers, the MSM has all of it's A-list talking heads present. One of CNN's in-house girliemen got up and started whining about the Bush (surprised?) policy of not allowing the media to photograph our fallen war heroes coffins being brought back home. "The people want to pay tribute to our dead", was the excuse used by this effeminate twerp. What he really meant was, since we're able to sensationalize everything else, why not these dead soldiers? If the room wasn't filled with leftist reporters, i'm sure someone would've slapped this nitwit in the face. Of course, no one said a word about the feelings of the families and loved ones present at these private ceremonies, or the invasive questions that would be asked of them by the media maggots.
As with most of the questions asked, even though they were all powder-puff questions, yo president seemed to be caught off guard by this one, but said he would look into it. Judging from this article, it didn't take him very long. So put the dog out, make some popcorn for the kids, and wake grandma, because you just know what we'll be seeing on TV soon. For those of you not old enough to remember, this is exactly what they did during the Viet Nam war, and in fact, used the same exact excuse! It was one of the major causes of all the violent protests.
What say you?

Leave it up to the families.
What if one family wants it and the other doesn't. I say leave the ban in place. It WILL cause violent protests if they lift it... but based on the fact that reporters and 2 democrat senators are asking for it and Gates is saying it needs to be reviewed, I'm guessing it will be lifted be Obaaaaabaaaa.
Personally, i think it's a disgrace and highly disrespectful to allow the media maggots to use our fallen heroes as filler between commercials. Can you just see them pushing their cameras and microphones into the faces of family members, as they always do? But, as Lady-Bug says, with the media and two commie senators bitching about it, it's probably a done deal.
If the liberals want to see the caskets, show them the caskets in Detroit, Memphis, and and DC. There are more for them to oggle. DC is more dangerous than Bagdad.
Good call, Jimbo.
BTW, I meant by Obaaaaabaaa.
Has anyone heard how Poots is doing?
I haven't heard of any casualties since Obama's coronation. Are troops no longer being killed or are they just not being reported?
not being reported
Iraq
Afghanistan
and military specific
Iraq
afganistan
They put him together backwards. Now he's: "Stoop"
Apparently not Lady-Bug. I've been asking about Poots also.
