So JohnH, I assume (from something in one of your post a while back) that you were in the military. You think it's great to have a CinC who turns his back on military casualties? DSK Yes, I was. The President is not "turning his back on military casualties". This is a great example of tripe developed by libs. No one could reasonably expect the President to welcome every plane that arrives at Dover carrying wounded or deceased military. He does have a few other things to do. I'd like to hear you repeat that for a room full of ex-parents, widows and fatherless children. I have been the Survivor Assistance Officer for my share of casualties. Not one has ever had the idea that their son's remains be met at the CONUS arrival facility by the President. If it's such a big shortcoming, why hasn't the Senate minority leader, Daschle, made the trip to Dover? Is he being disrespectful? He isn't the President, or CinC, but so what? He considers himself to be a very important person with much higher standing than the President. John On the 'Poco Loco' out of Deale, MD |
