Right Wing Orwellian Speech Twist
Support for U.S. troops fighting abroad mixed with anger toward anti-war demonstrators at home as hundreds of people, far fewer than organizers had expected, rallied Sunday on the National Mall just a day after a massive protest against the war in Iraq.
In truth, the anti-war protestors have never made any disparaging remarks against our soldiers themselves. In fact, they are the ones vigorously supporting the troops because their main focus is getting our men and women safely back home to their families.
On the other hand, the pro-war demonstrators use the euphemism 'support our troops' as a code phrase to support George Bush and his gang, the Republican party and the corporate war profiteers. They want to unnecessarily mire our men and women in harms way in Iraq to face death and dismemberment hourly. How does this sentiment support our troops? The pro-war demonstrators actually have no regards at all for our troops.
