MILITARY MISCONDUCT?
For too long "Support the Troops" has been shorthand for "Support the War." Bush supporters have used the phrase to cut short protest, and to imply that if one opposed the war one opposed the people sent to fight it. Bullshit.
So what do these people say about Iraq veterans who oppose the war? Do they support these troops? That's a tough one.
Earlier this year, the Congressional Progressive Caucus held a meeting to hear the experience of members of Iraq Veterans Against the War. For more about the group, visit their website HERE.
Here's a news story about the group on Good Morning America.
