I know the other song was about Afghanistan. I was talking about the lynching song.

If he didn't support the war in Iraq, good for him. Has he taken as public a stand on this as he has on global warming? Further, it's not readily apparent how one can hold that position and support Bush's reelection. It's all very well to say "I support our troops." However, in this sound byte world, unless you say "Support our troops. Bring 'em home," expressions of support for the troops are going to be interpreted--by his audience--as support for the president and the war.

And the lifelong (northern) Democrats I grew up around don't drive tough trucks.
