39. Why is it That I'm considered
unpatriotic and not supportive of the troops because i don't believe they should be in this war, and someone who:

has never done a bit of service;
believes it's okay to flout geneva conventions (despite the builtin protection for our soldiers;
is willing to send our men and women into a killing zone without the proper equipment;
is willing to blame our troops when things go wrong, or didn't turn out as planned, when those men and women are merely following orders and chain of command;
and is totally gung ho about a war based on lies, is considered a Top Notch Patriot?


I mean - in my family of several generations of Military officers and enlisted, someone like that, at best, is considered a hypocritical, cowardly, weenie.


But to the rest of the world, they're considered hmm...Our Ruling Party. Why is that?
