Dems support the troops

In the post “Real Democrat sloganeering” below, Lex notes some bumper stickers seen on cars in Ohio and then notes some bumper stickers that would really say what Democrats believe. I’ve note something odd on my latest trip through Ohio. Democrat bumper stickers like “Bush Lied” are often accompanied by a magnetic American flag or one of those trendy “I support the troops” magnetic ribbons. So you have the idiotic juxtaposition of these Democrats calling the Commander in Chief of all US forces a liar, thereby undermining morale and discipline within the very force they claim to “support.”

God knows it’s hard to be a Liberal. You almost have to be a Machiavellian, two-faced, dyslexic, switch hitting, duplicitous, double dealing, ambidextrous, hypocrite to square anything with reality if you’re a Liberal today. Given their deep hatred of George Bush, you can almost understand Libs for some of their disingenuousness. Like Al Gore burning tons of fuel day in and day out in effort to slow our use of fossil fuel. Like Rosie O’Donnell surrounding herself, her kids and lover with armed security while campaigning against the rest of us owning a gun for similar protection. Like the Kennedy’s, Sorros’ et al whining about how low US taxes are while they squirrel their own money away in off-shore tax free shelters. We could go for a hundred pages noting hypocrisy after hypocrisy, but you get the idea.

Now some bright Democrat strategist has come up with the brilliant idea of undermining the leadership of the armed forces while claiming to “support the troops.” What the Democrat bumper sticker really means is, “I support the troops…who shoot their officers.” If they regain power, I wonder how long it'll take these Libs to throw out the magnetic American flags and ribbons that adorn their cars?
