Why doesn't Bush send his daughters? asks sister

The tearful father of the first confirmed US casualty of the war has appeared on US television condemning the war and blaming for Bush.

Really, I feel like a shit posting this because it IS propaganda and I feel so sorry for the father and sister Neal Peckham. This is just another example of the human cost of this war: working people are dying for the rich all over the world.

Interestingly I can't find any major newspaper stories reporting the opinions of his father and sister: just reports that Bush is praying for them. Some use prayers are.
