Our Fallen Soldiers Deserve Better Than This

In another example of actions speaking louder than words, the Bush Admnistration has sunk to the lowest possible depths in showing their true feelings for the men and women who have given the ultimate sacrafice for this nation.

They are shipping home dead bodies as cargo, in the belly of commerical airliners, along with the general luggage.

"A local family said fallen soldiers and Marines deserve better and that one would think our war heroes are being transported with dignity, care and respect. It said one would think upon arrival in their hometowns they are greeted with honor. But unfortunately, the family said that is just not the case.

Dead heroes are supposed to come home with their coffins draped with the American flag -- greeted by a color guard.

But in reality, many are arriving as freight on commercial airliners -- stuffed in the belly of a plane with suitcases and other cargo.

John Holley and his wife, Stacey, were stunned when they found out the body of their only child, Matthew John Holley, who died in Iraq last month, would be arriving at Lindbergh Field as freight."

Actions speak louder than words President Bush. Shame.

"Actions speak louder than words President Bush. Shame."

Amen, YWIW!

Amazing how all their rhetoric fades into white noise when matched up against the reality of their actions.
