Wow- and one video links to another and another. Guess it's just more dolts who did not "get" the joke.

I could post a bazillion links to soldiers and relatives of soldiers who are mad as hell at the way things are going and it wouldn't change the warhawks attitudes one bit, pretty much like your links won't change mine. I wish you could summon up some of that outrage at things that are really hurting people, but I am not going to hold my breath.

Do we know how these soldiers even heard about this story? Perhaps their only source was from the likes of Fox News. I know if that were my only source, I would have been misled as well, as to the context of his words.

Sure. That's it. Can't be their honest reactions- NOPE- it's the evil Fox spin machine.

I'm sure it is their honest reaction. Never suggested otherwise. I just find their outrage puzzling, being that Kerry never used the word "troops" at all and wasn't talking about them. If you listened solely to Fox News though, you probably wouldn't know that. Seems like a possible explanation for their outrage to me.

But we've been over this already.
