The Senate yesterday rejected 54-39 a proposal by Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.) to reverse Pentagon policy discouraging media coverage of the arrival of war dead at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware. Lautenberg said the prohibition "prevents the American people from seeing the truth about what's happening." The Senate instead endorsed a resolution introduced by Sen. John Warner (D-Va.) to approve the policy for privacy reasons.

Privacy my patootie. Can you see through a coffin? I can't either.
Go back to sleep. We'll wake you when the bad guys behead somebody.
It's not privacy. It's secrecy.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
