People who protest the war, do the soldiers a disservice. If they dont like the war, that's fine. There are plenty of reasons to not like the war. Just dont follow it with "but I support the troops." No you don't, you think their cause is unjust. You disrespect them.

is utter and coplete total bs. period.
You can't support individuals who have signed up to support our country - no questions asked--- and simultaneously question the wisdom of how they are being used?
Certainly not the exact same thing, but similar reasoning: if my sister is a dutiful wife and I find out her husband is cheating on her, am I "disrespecting" (a word I hate, by the way) her by calling him a scumbag?
