It's true. I think this story is a bit silly. My dad was flown to Arlington as freight, which is admittedly different than having a son or daughter coming home in a casket as a result of enemy action.
This whole thing stinks of something being made out of it for a reason. Could be another case of Liberals using the death of a soldier as a political football.
If so, how unfair and how sad for this young man and his family and friends on top of their loss.
Exactly what I think. I think it's pretty easy for someone to use the grief of a parent to further their political agenda (in this case, the administration is bad, the Iraq war is bad, etc). In my opinion that is almost as low as you can go.
