"As long as it is done in good taste, and they are showing that the people here in the United States are welcoming them back and saying job well done, that is what I would like to see,"The retched media has already proved that they cannot do this in good taste. They already dance on the grave of each and every fallen troop in the war on terror. Families and supporters need to tie up the phone lines at the Whithouse, Pentagon, and Congress over this.

The coffins arriving from Afghanistan over the next few months will have OBAMA’S FAULT all over them. Let’s see how he likes what the antiwar press does with that imagery.

At Obama’s first press conference, CNN asked him to revisit this so people could “see the real cost of the war” or something to that effect.
Make no mistake, the press will misuse these photos.

Of course the media will misuse these photos. No question there.
But, I’m torn. I think that the public should have an understanding of what these heroes and their equally heroic families are really sacrificing.
Where I do draw the line is taking photos of the grieving family. That is obscene voyeurism, and just should not happen.

For me, it’s pretty simple. I wouldn’t want the whole world seeing my husband before I do if he had to come home like that. I don’t understand why the media thinks it is so necessary that they get to photograph this. I just don’t like the idea.
