I agree that it's very calculated, as is Bush's refusal to let the media film coffins being brought home. Most of all the families of the dead want to know that their loved one's name and sacrifice will be appreciated, and will not be forgotten-which is why the Vietnam Wall is so important to me.
Every week my church says a prayer for the soldiers in Iraq but never has for the dead Iraquis. I think that's shameful.
