...was the headline on the paper this morning.

since the begining of the war the Bush administration has been adament about not releasing photos of our nations fallen. But a contract worker took 361 images of caskets being loaded into a cargo plane for transport home. Her and her husband were fired. After photos were posted on the internet the Pentagon reluctantly released the pictures to the press. It definently struck a chord in my heart actually seeing this. But what I can't understand is why the administration has been so against this while at the same time using the pictures of 9-11 victims in his campaign commercials.

On another note former Arizona Cardinals safety Patrick Tillman was killed in an ambush attack in Iraq. This is a great example of someone who gave up a profesional football career to join a bigger cause that he believed in.
Tillman, age 27 was not above himself and refused interviews concerning his actions in things he believed bigger than the NFL.
From the bottom of the heart I give the Tillman family the deepest sympathy including his brother who still serves in Iraq. And also to the rest of our men and women in our armed forces I salute you and hope for a safe return some day.

before todays "debates" begin let's all take a moment to remember our serviceman for their hard and courageous work whether we agree with the war or not becasue they need it.
