1. I'm going to email 60 minutes and ask them to send a
tape to Bush. Wonder if he will watch it??

99% of them are babies.

As long as he has got Saddam and his collectibles, to hell with these young people.

2. I was a teenager the last time I watched war dead like this.
To this day, I cringe every time I hear "We interrupt this program for a special bulletin."

4. My husband and I were in tears.
Our son is 20 and in the Marines. We have a portrait on the shelf that looks just like so many of the Marine photos they showed, taken during boot camp in their dress blues. This was our son's decision and we support him completely but I just don't know how I will handle it if he is sent to participate in this senseless war.

My heart goes out to the families of these, and all, the fallen heros.

6. Sinclair owns 3 CBS affiliates. What did they do?
http://www.sbgi.net/business/markets/all.shtml

KOVR-13 Stockton/Sacramento, WGME-13 Portland, ME, and KGAN-2 Cedar Rapids-Waterloo, IA.

The $64,000 question: Did these stations run the 60 minutes segment? If so, how does Sinclair explain running this segment but not the nearly identical one on Nightline a couple of weeks ago?
