Q. What can we at home do to support the troops? A: "How about everyone who "Supports the Troops" volunteer for a nice tax increase to pay for the war? How about a military pay raise? Aren't we worth it? How about some better equipment? How about giving every returning vet a good JOB?"
This statement also bothered me. The suggestion of increasing taxes to pay for the war is classic DNC rhetoric. And as far as the military pay raise, Republicans have voted for tremendous amounts of troop funding while Democrats have blocked said funding (or voting for it before you vote against it).
But, it is entirely possible that the person is serving but not a right-winger.
Yep. Talking points through and through. Well, time will tell, if he is correct.
