Whatever you do don't mention the guns

Yesterday the President spoke at the memorial service for those who were shot and killed at Virginia Tech. He mentioned "god" four times, "prayer" or "praying" four times and "faith" twice. He didn't mention "guns" once and probably never will in regard to this or any other tragedy.

And he who has attended the funeral of none of the 3,312 American men and women who have died in Iraq included this:

"And as you draw closer to your own families in the coming days, I ask you to reach out to those who ache for sons and daughters who will never come home"
