It stunk from the first moment I heard about the "outrage."
Since when is it an offense for a United States President to honor and remember the men who died in heroic efforts to save fellow citizens when their nation was under attack? Since when is it exploitation to portray the loss with dignity and and a policy to never forget, and a call to be a part of the campaign to protect America?
Yes, that is what the president's re-election campaign is about -- protecting America from enemies abroad and within. The worst enemies are not foreigners with malicious intent, but men and women in power who do not value liberty, honesty and America's goodness, who fear our own righteousness indignation and sense of self-preservation as a threat to world peace (which is non-existant). Men like Kerry. Men and women like the reporters in the mainstream press who immediately echo the "outrage" and fail to investigate the source.

And of course, none of the partisan media shills called the "spokespeople" on their hypocrisy -- obviously they're the ones standing on the graves.
