Conservatives support the troops better than we do!
Remember back in the 90's when the flag wavers were supporting our troops and hating the President relative to Bosnia and Kosovo.

Remember when the great patriot and wise sage sean hannity said "Explain to mothers and fathers of american servicemen that may come home in body bags why their son or daughter have to give up their life."

Well, the C-in-C in the 90's must have been listening because he sent troops to Bosnia and Kosovo and a total of ONE was killed in action between both events. A total of 15 of our service personnel died in those operations.

Bush has gotten more than that many American Kids killed in HIS WAR in Iraq on his most recent vacation.

Gosh I wonder if planning and execution and LEADERSHIP had anything to do with those operations instead of greed and lies? That liberal wackjob democrat General Wesley Clark had a hand in Bill Clinton's adventures as well.

1. We've lost more people in Iraq
than in the Mexican-American war. In the Mexican-American war, we got California, New Mexico, Arizona and parts of other states. What did we get out of this war besides high gas prices?

2. I am so sick and tired of those who support this ridiculous war
of accusing those of us who don't support the war of NOT supporting the troops.

Huh? We want our troops home safe and sound and somehow that equates to not supporting the troops? It's friggin' ridiculous.

4. You obviously hate the troops because you want them to live.
Edited on Thu Aug-25-05 01:31 PM by bushisanidiot
to love america is to want it destroyed through endless war, skyrocketing deficits, skyrocketing gas prices, endless tax give-aways to big oil/gas/power companies, etc.

you see, in the repuke world, america must be destroyed in order for it to be saved.

:P

it's not so hard to understand. Just remember, up is down; black is white; war is peace.

3. Many Repugs said that we had to put troops on the ground to win.
They predicted Clinton's efforts wouldn't work. Now Bush is doing just what they advised in Kosovo and Bosnia and our troops are dying like flies and besides it ain't working no way no how.

5. Many Democratic troops in Iraq-Republicans are not
supporting them. Do you suppose they hear the hatred for them every day blaring from limbaugh and fox.
