When a flag-draped body is different from a flag-draped body How's that again, Mr. Leader?
  • Excellent point, Andrew

    You're right, of course.

    It's not particularly nice for either party to use such images. How painful for families and friends who've lost loved ones through war/terrorism.

    But then neither side is particularly in tune with the views and concerns (or the pain) of the everyday man and woman in this country.

    P.S. (I do think it's different of one shows Karina destruction and has images of Heck-of-a-Job Brown and Buy-a-Clue Chertoff by way of conveying the administration's astonishing ineptitude. That's different than showing a human being in a box. But I digress.)
