Obama Against the War…but not the troops.
Finally noticed an email in my Inbox from the Obama campaign pushing the Iraq War De-escalation bill again, didn’t think too much of it till about half-way through where it says.
On this page, you can also find a link to various ways you can assist troops in the field, veterans who’ve returned home, and the families of those whose service we honor. And so as we work to get them out of harm’s way in Iraq, please take a moment to do something for those who have sacrificed most.
The site actually links to AmericaSupportsYou.mil, so it’s not like they created their own page or anything (nor is there really a reason to when a resource already exists). It struck me as an interesting twist to push the “Support the Troops” rhetoric at the same time as the “Stop the Iraq War” rhetoric, since the Republicans have tried so hard to make them polar opposites.
