New AOL poll re hiding the dead

[Autumn Colors]

DU this AOL poll about FEMA wanting to ban the media from photographing the recovery of bodies.

I also agree with others that we need to write to every government official we can think of to prevent them from taking the "we don't do body counts" tack.

My idea for a response to that attitude is:

"Oh, you don't think your fellow Americans COUNT?!"

17. They counted every body on 9/11...and even inflated it to possibly

10 thousand (!!!) before the towers even fell. Sick, sick, sick, twisted adminstration. Rot. In. Hell. You'll get there first.
