ConStitutioN: ANTI-US videos, -ZANY commentary

In what is a straight news story, the NY TIMES reports on the rapidly rising number of videos of Iraqi insurgents ATTACKING us Troops. Article HERE

But that's not what got me about this article.
BURIED Deep inside the article are THESE quotes:
At a time when the Bush administration has restricted photographs of the coffins of military personnel returning to the United States. (more)
STOP. Remember freedom of SPEECH? The RIGHT to SEE the coffins of our dead soldiers was DENIED to us by EXECUTIVE order in 2002.

(continued. ...)and the Pentagon keeps close tabs on videotapes of combat operations taken by the news media, the videos give average Americans a level of access to combat scenes rarely available before, if ever.
OK.

Russell K. Terry, the Vietnam veteran who founded the "Iraq War Veterans Organization", said he had mixed feelings about the videos.

“It’s unfortunate there’s no way to stop it,” Mr. Terry said, even though “this is what these guys are over there fighting for: freedom of speech.”

Ironic? The guy admits we're FIGHTING for FREEDOM of Speech, and YET agrees we should censor it.

Fight CENSORSHIP.
Fight for FREEDOM.
FIGHT against the TYRANY being imposed upon us by the ULTRA NEO-CON RIGHT wing.

Oh, and ORSON SCOTT Card's New book, EMPIRE is now out.
Look here for a book review . It sickens me, that we are in the beginnings of this second civil war between good and evil.

SIGH
