    • Nice picture. Im glad to see hes willing to show the bodies of our fallen heroes unlike the last presidency who were afraid of bad press.

    • that's a pretty damn good salute. Granted i wonder if the picture caught him blinking or if he kept his eyes close the whole time...but still pretty decent for never serving. Wonder if someone gave him lessons beforehand?

      ^ By the way that is in NO way whatsoever bashing him for never serving. I seriously think he just did a damn good job. He's standing at attention and saluting. Nice work.

      I think this is great, thank God our Commander in Chief can do this for these soldiers. Too bad the American Public can't show more sympathy towards em, our media covers fallen soldiers barely ever (could give a quick moment of silence every once in a while?) yet gives Michael Jackson 10 days of coverage.

    • Please God dont let anybody troll this post. (note Current that i am not accusing anybody of trolling. I know you hate that word.)

      I think the man is being sincere here. He knows any decision he makes to send troops to Afghanistan and the deaths there of will way on his shoulder's.
      He is showing great respect for our soldier's and it has got to be eating at him to put more in harms way just to finish what Dubya and his cronies started.
      Lets be respectful on this one please.
