Edwards' insensitive move

    Support the troops

    Actually, supporting the troops shouldn't even be something you have to say, it's pretty much a given. I have a friend at work that was a Bush voter, she hates him now, better late than never, I guess. But she said she was against the war, but supported the troops, I told her she didn't need to qualify that, it's like saying you're against cancer, or your for rainbows, of course you support the troops. Of course, the republicans had no problem understanding this concept when Clinton was president, now they pretend that such a thing is impossible.
