Good article, except one point. I don't believe she ever met a parent of a soldier who died on an airplane. In the first few weeks there were less than 100 soldiers dead, out of about 100 million parents, the chances of this woman meeting one of these parents when a magazine fell out of her lap is astronomical. Of course it is possible, except that I have read countless articles like this in the past few years. Every reporter seems to have an uncanny ability to wind up on the very small end of the large statistics scale. In other words, she made it up. Good article on Bush and the way Americans feel about him, but I doubt she ever met that man.

...she made it up....

You don't know that. I'm confident that after the recent scandals her editors would have sought further verification before going to press. Seek treatment for your cynicism issues, mate.
