re: #194 darthstar

TOTAL War mentions during three days of the RNC: 14
During the DNC: 118 - nearly every speaker acknowledged the troops. THAT is how you show them that you appreciate their sacrifice.

Of course if those numbers were reversed the moonbats would be crying about GOP warmongers. But the reason is simple; Dem president. If there was a Republican President the DNC wouldn’t be praising the military successes over the past 4 years and parading troops on stage, etc. They certainly didn;t do it in the Bush years and when the next Republican comes to office they’ll go back to criticizing the use of military force and will offer more muted praise for the military.
Dems would have flipped their shit if a republican gave Kerry’s speech (praising Israel, threatening Iran) at RNC with a Republican president in office. Hell, if he posted it here he’d be hounded as a wingnut troll.
It really does suck that the military and troops become a partisan issue depending on who’s in the White House. I think it’s shitty but that’s just the way it is.
