BUSH USES DEAD BODIES SELECTIVELY

"As the nation headed for war last year, President Bush "clamped down" on the media, extending and expanding a controversial policy that banned reporters from photographing flag-draped caskets of soldiers killed in combat. The White House said the policy was enforced to "spare the feelings of military families." Yet, in the very first television advertisement of his 2004 campaign, the president has blanketed the nation's airwaves with an image of "firefighters carrying a flag-draped body" from the 9/11 wreckage at Ground Zero."

This is the guy who refused to testify in open session before the 9/11 commission!

More on the most cynical US presidency ever, probably...

More in this vein from the firefighters at the IAFF, w/ thanks to kbibb
