Why do Republicans hate our troops?
They hate paying taxes, and want to get rid of the IRS. That's a known fact.

A third of our tax dollars goes towards defense. If nobody paid taxes, our troops would be unpaid and without the equipment they need to fight Dumbya's wars. Apparently, this is what the GOP wants.

Why do Republicans, and specifically teabaggers, hate our troops? Shame on them. :thumbsdown:

4. Good point.
Not many billionaires, or even many millionaires, would dare to be in the military. They think it is below them.

2. Republicans and tea baggers are different
groups from what I gather.

5. Not all Republicans are teabaggers.
But the teabaggers seem to have the biggest voice in the Repuke party, at least right now.

6. Everything that is good for America, anyway.
Anything that is bad for America, such as tax cuts for the wealthy, or forbidding gays to marry, they just LOVE.
