How much do the Repubs value the lives of the GIs in Iraq ??
To listen to them talk about "freedom and liberty" for the Iraqi people, they sound as if it doesn't matter how much American blood is spilled so long as the Iraqis are "free" ? The thought never seems to cross their minds. Just how many lives is this Iraqi "freedom" worth? They never say. However many it takes so long as it is not them that are bleeding and dying...?

1. They don't care at all.
Their actions demonstrate that they care little for the troops. Most Bush supporters are simply glad to sit on their sofas and watch a good war on tv. It makes them feel good to be an American when we are bombing a foreign country. They do not have to share in the danger. If these people really cared about the troops, they would be outraged that Bush has sunk the troops into an unwinnable deathtrap. But as polls show, most Bush supporters do not concern themselves with facts. They don't care that Iraq did not attack us and did not have WMD. These so-called patriots just like to see us bombing and killing brown people. They feel it is revenge for 9-11. They are too stupid to see how an unjust war hurts our Nation.
