Also mentioned in The Corner today: a theory that those yellow ribbons that say "Support Our Troops" are on cars belonging to Bush supporters. I think there's something to that. Starting around mid-September, I've been counting the number of cars that have both a Kerry bumper sticker (or anti-Bush) and a "Support Our Troops" ribbon. So far I've seen just one, and I work near a blue-state town where there are many more Kerry signs in yards than Bush signs. Seems none of them are willing to say "Support Our Troops" however.
I don't know how you feel - but honestly, I think that regardless of whether or not you support the war, you should support our soldiers. They have no choice as to where our government sends them or why they are sent there. They die for our country - wearing our flag on their uniform. They deserve the support and respect of every American everywhere, regarless of race, ethnicity, creed, or political party.
