ABC News' John Yang on Saturday's nightly broadcast, talking about Friday's casualties in Iraq:

 

"Camp Lejeune is home base for the dead marines. The community here tends to take casualties in stride. But tonight, some are beginning to ask questions."

 

I don't know what's more infuriating about this -- the statement that families of dead marines take their deaths "in stride", the implied connection between a death in the family and needing to take a political stand, or the underlying premise that opposing the occupation of Iraq equates to forward progress!
