Typical.

God forbid the family of Army Pfc. LaVena Johnson be told how their own daughter was killed in Iraq while serving her country.

Funny how again it's the liberals who are all upset that our troops are being treated like dirt, and it's the Republicans who are trying to hide these stories under the rug. Hmmm... And it's the liberals complaining about our troops not having the appropriate body armor, while the Republicans try to slip the problem under the rug. And it's the liberals who are complaining about our troops not being given an end game strategy to win this war, while the Republicans simply lie while our troops keep getting killed and maimed.

Tell me again how the Republicans are the party of national defense?
