All include something about the Constitution being passed, as if to lessen the blow of the 2,000 number?

1. Planned that way, so it doesn't look like they died in vain.

Not the deaths, but the realease of the 2000th name.

2. I'll give CNN credit-they showed plenty of caskets...
I emailed CNN asking them to do so in honor of the 2000 that died.I doubt my email is the reason,but there were multiple shots of flag draped caskets during Kyra Phillips time..

3. As if this 'fake' constitution really matters...
It's to make it seem as if our troops actually died for a reason.
hmmmph...:grr:
