Killing themselves was unnecessary. But it certainly is a good PR move

Terrible story from todays guardian: Killing themselves was unnecessary. But it certainly is a good PR move. Oddly enough I don't see this in the blogosphere... maybe because there isn't much else to say. Or people are too busy with the football?

I think they should all work on getting LOTS more good PR!

BTW - By football, do mean the boring "sport" of soccer? Or real football, like the Arena League Championship, won by Mike Ditka's Chicago team?

Another point you can be sure the rightwingnuts won't focus on is the fact that one of the three was already scheduled for release (but no-one had told him).

It's the sort of thing you would expect to see in The Onion.. I'm sure, of course, that Bush and Blair will demonstrate their resolve and stength by striking back in the same manner.
