Silence

Republican House Minority Leader John Boehner calls more troop deaths a "small price" to pay to continue the war in Iraq.

As Kos notes only John Kerry has the temerity to say anything:

Fortunately for him, Boehner's a Republican. So there have been exactly three media hits of the ridiculous statement -- one from the Think Progress link I used above, one a John Kerry post on HuffPost demanding an apology, the last a blog post from a TV station in North Dakota.

But did you hear about the ad some group placed in some newspaper somewhere calling Petraeus a meanie? Stop the presses!

As the cliche goes, "imagine the outcry if a Democrat said this".
