U.S. to Halt Cremation of Troops at Animal Crematorium

Durn, this was saving the Pentagon at least a few hundred bucks per body out of their $700 billion.

The person or persons who did the cotract for this service should be jailed.

More GOP support for the troops! Just like Walter Reed, un armored humvees and second rate body armor. Not to mention Walter Reed, electrocuted GIs, stoploss, opposition to educational benefits, sh!t strewn barracks, lack of VA and mental health care, etc. How many mothers will look at their children's urns tonight and wonder if they hold animal bones?

despicable of course. but so's a war for elitist to sit fat and happy.

Ask the troops who supports them?

It's not the Dems.

What is the problem with this? Humans are just a higher form of animal, so what's the real problem with this? People not wanting to ADMIT that they are no better than animals, higher reasoning skills nonwithstanding.

What respect the government has for the troops. Unbelievable.

what's the diff? Ashes are ashes? Ya think the soldiers are going to catch somthing from the cats?

We send them to die, then worry about how their dead bodies are burned? That makes no sense!

Better see this..

Not one US Soldiers has had this happen. In short there was a place that was contract in a small town that did this service foe people ans pets. Not once was it used. It was noticed and cut from the contract. What is wrong with that. Nothing more than a big what if.

As a veteran, I'd have no problem in being cremated in a pet crematorium. Most pest are treated better than our veterans anyway.

Oops... injured hand... typos... that should have read "pets" not 'pest'.

So Bush has his "Arfwitz" to go along with the rest of his right-wingnut fascism.

Wonder if O'Reilly And Limbaugh and the other draft-dodging war mongers are gonna talk about this.

I wonder if our President would be ok with this if it were him or his family. If he would be ok with it then I support it, if not why did he allow it to begin with???

THIS WAS INSTITUTED BY THE LIBERAL LEFTIST EXTREMISTS like Hillary, Boxer, Feinstein, Polosie and of course that aged, senile dinosaur, KENNEDY.

They've always treated our soldiers like animals.
They figure the soldiers who protect them are not worthy of a decent burial.

The Pentagon is concerned that there may be public perception that they could care less about dead US soldiers...with good reason.

just when you think the treatment of dead and wounded soliders by this administration cant get any worse..........

those of you said it didnt matter that animals were cremated there sound like they respect these brave men and women about like bush and cheney and the other draft dodgers in this administration do..........

regardless of what you think about this war these young soldiers deserve better than this.

This is the most.... there are no words for those who had any part in this horrific deed. To think that anyone would allow the Troops to be handled in an in moral way as this....It creeps us all out down deep,so much I can't type. Like some I never claimed to either. You guttless people to allow such an usurption of a familys dead member to not have a proper..... Oh dear God raise your hand, bring down the storms of tribulation.

George Bush's daughter is getting married, but Keith Heidtman will never get that chance.

Keith Heidtman was a loving son, brother, grandson, nephew and friend. He was killed on Memorial Day 2007. Please read and respond to this open letter to President Bush at:
