Link to full story with picture:

So why in the name of all that's holy don't our soldiers deserve the same respect and acknowledgement? Why are they hidden away like a crazy relative the no one is allowed to talk about?

God how I do hate the Bushes and all their evil minions. None of them is worth s**t compared to the Americans in uniform fighting this chickenhawk's b***shit wars.

1. Because this is to show that we DO HAVE A COALITION. Our

dead soldiers would just prove that we are dying over there, not only the Iraqis that are never mentioned but whom the majority of Americans don't think about except to say "but Saddam killed his own people." Apparently when we are killing them it is not worth mentioning it.

2. Good point - that explains some of the strategy perhaps

But it doesn't make it any less reprehansible. Thanks for pointing that out, though.
