"Why couldn't this reporter focus on the happy aspect of this trip, the family's anticipation of their reunion with Jessica? Her mother had just said how happy and excited she was. It's like the reporter just had to burst that bubble and drag the family back down."....Yes, and the question is retarded anyway. There is only one answer: Of course, we are Americans and feel bad for every soldier lost and their parents as well. It's as if the reporter thinks they should feel guilty because they are rejoicing since their daughter was lost and is now found. They should not feel guilty but should rejoice as we all did when she was rescued.

There's that word again. Have you been watching the reruns of Baghdad Bob?

"Yes, and the question is retarded anyway."

I'm not sure just what a "retarded" question is, but my son has a developmental disability and people who want to insult him call him "retarded". That word has been turned into the biggest insult you can give someone, and it is very hurtful and offensive to those with disabilities and those who love them.

This is not about "Political Correctness" but about human respect.
