Once again, our honored dead are about to become political footballs.
The LA Time reports HERE that "The Pentagon has decided to rescind a long-standing prohibition against press coverage of returning war dead, allowing families to say whether news organizations may photograph the arrivals, Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates said Thursday."
Anyone who believes that this is not a directive from the President is drinking some really bad KoolAid.
Our dead, as shown by the AP's running tally, are already ammunition for Code Pink, KOS, and other left-wing "workers for peace".
Feh.
It isn't enough that the names and hometowns of our dead are publicized, but now the ugliest side of "If it bleeds, it leads" is making a very ugly return.
I remember what the oh-so-caring media did in the past.
I predict that the media will behave as well now as they did then.
Asshats, one and all.
