He Can Honor 33 but Not 3,309

President Bush will speak at Tuesday's convocation at Virginia Tech to remember the 33 people who died in two campus attacks and comfort others affected by the deadliest campus violence ever in the United States.
George, of course, has yet to attend an Iraq servicemember's funeral, preferring instead to speak to family members in private:
“Because which funeral do you go to? In my judgment, I think if I go to one I should go to all. How do you honor one person but not another?” he said.
And then he added, "Besides, I'm gonna get me a much better photo-op in Virginia with all those cryin' students then I ever could standing in front of a bunch of flag-draped coffins."
