Are we to the point where we get annoyed to be reminded of the death toll in Iraq?
You can read the story here http://www.cnn.com/2006/LAW/11/29/hillside.crosses.ap/index.html and decide for yourself.

In my opinion it seems like some people would like it to be more publicly known what is going on with our troops and there are others that would like to hide it and never discuss it.
