'Hide the consequences'
Kerry calls out Bush again.
emocratic presidential candidate John Kerry on Sunday accused President Bush of trying to hide the consequences of the Iraq war by restricting photographs of flag-draped coffins returning home from the conflict.Under a policy that Bush endorses, the Pentagon tightly restricts publication or broadcast of photographs of coffins with the remains of U.S. troops.
And it forbids journalists from taking pictures at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware, the first stop for the bodies of troops being sent home.
"I believe that keeping faith with those who serve also requires us to understand the sacrifice they're making and to honor it when they come home to the fullest measure," Kerry told a rally here.

I hope that Kerry picks Wes Clark for VP. The dems really need to hammer these turds.

George bush is a disgrace to the military and to all those who died in the service of this country.
I agree with Ted about Wes Clark.

I'm thinking Wes Clark as well. Though I love Edwards, whom I like more than Kerry, I think we need Wes on the ticket to beat these low lifes.

i really dont like wes clark, but then again i dont really like john kerry either, that doesnt mean i wont vote for him. if all of this has taught me anything, it is that the lesser of 2 evils is at least less evil, if nothing else.
