Openness is returned to Dover, there is no reason to question the Press's presence there now.

There are at least three separate news photographers involved in this picture display by "The Guardian." I guess they wanted to be there, huh?

I also believe it is a good experience for the leaders of our nation to experience the return of the dead to our country. It keeps it real.

I get the feeling as through President Obama didn't want to leave Sgt. Griffin. He made an impression on his President, in his selfless act as an American man prepared to die for his country. I think it is important President Obama respect that and I think it is important that the nation witnessed this moment.

This is the picture Liz Cheney wants to oppress and states it is a 'Photo Op.' Typical of Republicans and how they think. The fallen soldier was NOT an object to his commanders, he was named and respected.
