6. This is bizarre and creepy...
and a laughable substitute for the real parent, who SHOULD be here for their children, but is off getting shot off for the sake of that asshole Bush.
Yeah, let's keep calling them 'heroes' because that makes up for all of the other shit. I mean, you guys are HEROES, thanks for being deployed three times, your HEROISM is so great. Wait, you want to go home and see your family? Fucking coward, you must hate America. :mad:

9. I was gonna say it's just WiErD
but you're right.
Letting big flat plastic things represent people somehow to kids is Scary in a creepy sad way I think.

13. Whoever came up with this sickening idea should get their head examined.
My dad wasn't around for me when I was a child, and the idea of having a facsimile represent him would've frigtened and disgusted me...as if this war wasn't bad enough...God...it's just too much

7. This was on the TV news here in San Diego - families actually sit them at the dinner table,
take them to the movies with them, do all sorts of things with them. The TV newscast did it in total seriousness and sincerity! I just sat there in stunned silence.

14. SNL or some show that isn't afraid of the censor's rapier
should go off on this.



"Do you like your Flat Daddy?"

"Yeah."

"Why?"

"Because he doesn't get drunk and hit me."
