Hmmmm. Am I missing something here, or do the opinions and words of these liberal nutjobs directly contradict their “we support the troops” spiel?
I work in Minneapolis and live in St Paul, yesterday i rode bike to work like i normally do and on the way home i crossed the mississippi and ran into a mini anti-bush rally. as i was coming over the bridge i was getting thumbs up from the pseudo-hippies that obviously thought i was riding bike because i care about the environment thus making me a democrat. i had to stop after seeing the "Stop Bush" signs and the "bring the troops home" I like to bite my tongue with strangers but i just didnt have the will power. I asked a 30 something lady with the Stop Bush sign who should I vote for then, she replied "um um, I dont know" Then I told her I was going to vote for Nader and some guy next to us went ballistic on a rant about how a vote for Nader is a vote for Bush. I smiled and told him that I sure hope so.
A few protestors further in the "Bring the Troops Home" camp I asked which troops do you want brought home? a guy said all of them, which suprised me since he obviously meant those in Afghanistan, and Italy and Alabama, I told him that we have already brought troops home from these foreign places including Alabama. He didnt believe me, evidently when a soldier, sailor or marine goes over there they never get to come back...ever. He actually said with conviction that none of our troops have came back from Iraq. I responded by asking him if that was true, why was i here since a year ago i was in the gulf. he had no responce obviously.
sorry for the rant, but at least understand the rhetoric that you are spewing people!!
