Why does the Republican leadership HATE the troops??

[annabanana]

Why have none of them spoken out against the Koran burning scheduled by the batshit crazy preacher? Why aren't they listening to the statement of Gen. Patreaus and the troops on the ground?

hypocritical bastards...

1. And remember every time a Democrat so much as raised

their voice, they would scream that they were hurting the troops and would raise the color of the alert.
Why are the piss ant cowards so silent now. I sure wish we had trolls trolling this site so they could see what people think of republicans and this religious book burning. Wimpy ass cowards. Afraid to come out against this disgrace.

2. ...and,btw...none of their kids/relatives went to Viet Nam/Gulf War/Iraq and Afghanistan

Chicken Hawks...and I know-the last folks to sacrifice here are WW2 vets.Lots of folks with hot air(And this does not include those who are openly against the war/violence)

5. Republicans have ALWAYS hated our uniformed personnel.

That's because our service people serve ideals that are supposed to be beyond partisanship. That's why you're seeing the rise of private contrator armies. Rethugs can BUY the loyalty of contractors asnd not have to worry about pesky things like oaths to protect the constitution.
