Republicans are happy. Profits are up. The dead are irrelevant.

Bush and Co. HAVE already done this to an extend, but forbidding the
taking of photographs of the returning coffins of America's dead
soldiers.

Their claim is this is somehow out of respect. If Bush and his
Republicans TRULY respected the death of soldiers, they would want to
honor them by showing these coffins and showing the people of America
what these soldiers gave for their nation.

But, you see, for Bush and all, it is NOT about honoring and reminding
these soldiers. Bush does not want America reminded of that everyday
-- because that would make even MORE Americans realized that what this
soldiers gave their lives for was NOT the United States -- but for an
illegal, futile, and useless was that Bush and his Administration LIED
Congress and the American people into fighting.
