Yes, but why take it out on the troops? Many of them don't
support the war either. Being angry about bad public policy
is one thing. Directing your anger at the ones getting shot
at every day is not.

Do you really think your cookie boycott is going to
fix our foreign policy? Withholding care packages
from the troops is irrational.

You must have a different cable package than I do. I
see the carnage every day.
