You really didn’t think that I’d let this one go, did you?
Obama just used this as a photo-op. It had absolutely nothing to do with sympathy for the lost soldiers to these families. He disgusts me and so do the idiots on the left that think this is some sort of compassion. It’s a political stunt played out on the backs of our dead soldiers and is as pathetic as it can get.
Propping Up The Dead
By Confederate Yankee
In a more barbaric portion of our nation’s past, it was not uncommon to prop up the bodies of the newsworthy dead to take pictures with them. It is a vile act still practiced by some crude thugs in one particularly callous and self-serving sect. You know them as the Democrats.
Whether tripping over each other to use caskets as a lectern at the funerals of a Wellstone or a Kennedy, there is never a moment too solemn for liberals to soil if the slightest political opportunity presents itself.
FireDogLake Buttheads clueless about Bush and our war dead

UPDATE: A Gold Star mom shares her thoughts on this.
I never cease to be amazed by the sorry haters on the left and their inability to understand the military, respect, dignity and the difference between a gesture and a heartfelt gesture. They are busy hating on George W because he failed to go to Dover and get photo-opped like our current Commander in Chief. Now first of all I will give Obama credit for gong to Dover, but as soon as it became a photo op it was cheapened as Matt noted. Anyone smell the stench of Axelrod and Emanuel? Well the brain-addled, land apes at FireDogLake are calling out the former CinC for not being so blatant. Admire their bile.
