5. Were they Boy Scouts?
I hope the public puts a lot of pressure on him to go, even though I don't want him there. The soldiers and their families deserve some dignity, and he is not a dignified person.

I would hope the media question why he shows Boy Scout leaders more respect than American soldiers.

4. HELL NO! He doesn't like bad news! With a front page like that one,
Shrub wouldn't even fly over Ohio. His #'s are bad enough already, he doesn't want to make 'em worse!

Capt. Mike McCarthy, left, and Sgt. Major Mark Brokaw, followed by U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich and Brook Park, Ohio, Mayor Mark Elliott, place a memorial wreath at Marine headquarters.



One won't find a much more vocal critic of the Iraq war than U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D., Cleveland), but yesterday he emphasized now is not the time for politics or criticism of the war.

"Everyone is familiar with my views. But let's look at this for a moment. We have a community that is grieving," he said. "That's our focus. We want to come together to show the families our support."
