Rhetorical Question

But how is it that Bush has private reasons for not attending the funeral of even one service person who has died in either of the wars he called, but he can lightning-quick arrange to speak at former President Reagan's funeral?

The only answer to this can be that Bush sees political use in being front and center for Mr. Reagan's seemingly week long funeral, whereas attending the funeral of a fallen soldier would point out something negative.

And shouldn't the families of those who have died be outraged? Without a family member dead in this war, I'm blown away by this.
