You forgot to add the "to the President." That's an important part of what Karen said.

To the objective humanist, maybe every life should be equal.

To the elected leader of a people, he had, IMO, better value the lives of the people he is sworn to defend and protect above the lives of others. That doesn't mean the lives of others are valueless, or meaningless, at all. But it does set a priority which I think the President has an obligation to observe.

This particularly true of American troops vs. Iraqui troops. If we could save one American solder at the cost of 2,000 Iraqui soldiers, go for it.
