Shitty analogy Thomas. You can't possibly compare a person losing his life in battle to losing a pawn in chess.

The pawn in chess does not have a mother, a father, possibly a sister, brother, son, daughter........ Not to mention a pawn is not a living thing.

Chess is a game. War is not a game. You know why War is not a game? No one wins in the end. Lest we forget those who paid the ultimate price so we can have freedom.

i think the point is that the celebrity isn't even a chess piece... is like a checkers or mancala piece... so why should we (err...congress) even care?

I see no flaw in your analogy...some may find it offensive...those who think with emotions... it was darn good logic.
