dems have got to "support the troops"...
Advertisements [?]
i know dems really DO support the troops more than the repub warmongers, but they're letting these repubs own the message.

almost everytime a repub opens their mouth, the phrase "support the troops" blurts out.

i wish dems would say the same thing "support the troops" everytime as well, since WE really mean it.

dems make great speeches against the war, but they should keep repeating "support the troops" over and over again to stop this iraq debate from being framed as "do you support the troops or are you against the war?"

how much more can you support the troops than to get them out of that iraqmire and bring them back home, safe and sound to their loved ones?

sad to say, "support the troops" bumpersticker soundbites go over better than logical speeches with the american public. repubs know this.

dems need to own "support the troops" and rightfully so.
