If CBS said that it was daytime, I’d look outside the window.

All Trump said was, “Why didn’t the wife speak?” (at the Philadelphia dem convention).

You nailed the Khans (cons).

Agreed, but none where the family member was using their son’s corpse as a political soapbox.

Black female army captain,
Are you a troll? Many of your posts are suspicious to me. Reminds me of my own work on DU. If not, knock it off.

This article is from CBS, which although lib, it’s far from suspicious.

This report did not make sense to me, so I started wondering if the first class passengers thought a “gold star family” was some level of airline rewards.

But according to a Yahoo story, the flight crew called them a “special military family” so as not to reveal that remains were on board.
This makes me think the first class passengers probably assumed some big-wig military brass was holding up the whole plane, thus they felt they were being dissed.

It doesn’t make sense b/c I can’t see that scenario happening, BUT if there were a bunch of libs in first class it would absolutely make sense (to them) to protest. It’s what they do best.

I didn’t get the impression that the remains were onboard, it sounded like they were flying out to be there when the soldier’s remains arrived.

I can’t see anyone, even libs, booing if they knew they were waiting for a Gold Star family.

They either didn’t know what a Gold Star designation is, or it was never conveyed to them.

I have seen this posted a bunch of time snow, and there is something that doesn’t add up. We aren’t hearing the whole story.
