Welcome to the Richard B. Cheney Autopsy Room for Service Members.

Five years ago the White House was evidently expecting company in the thousands, when they built twenty-three state of the art autopsy stations: "WASHINGTON, Oct. 29, 2003 – Military officials this week opened a new $30 million mortuary at Dover Air Force Base, Del."

"The mission of a mortuary is to prepare remains with dignity, care and respect," [Meg Falk, director of the Defense Department's Office of Family Policy] added. "If we expose that process to the media we lose that."

Really, Meg? A hell of a lot more than dignity, care and respect has been lost. With all due respect to the extremely difficult work of the mortuary workers, the least you can do is name the place after the people who will keep it populated well into the foreseeable future.
