Even if you do not like Pres. Bush , Do you support our troops?  They are someones family.?

Yes, I support the troops, I used to be one. Blaming soldiers for going where the elected leaders send them is ridiculous. Blaming the Soldiers is the easy way out, if someone disapproves of what the soldiers are doing they should address the issue with their elected leaders, that’s the way this country works.

We should not support this war at all. Our president just wanted to show that he was reacting in some way. However, he has created a mess in Iraq.

ALWAYS support our troops.  They aren't involved in the politcal BS. I'm sure if they had their choice they wouldn't be there either.

Amen sister! There's so much heated emotion over poitics that the troops are looked at as the bad guys.  Yes, I Support our troops. I hope they make it through their days over there. I hope they come home, and will welcome them when they return. While they're there, I pray that they know, we're thinking about them, and care about them. Don't forget they're our sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, etc.

This question is too vague.\n\nObviously you do not like our current president.\n\nI voted for George W. Bush twice and think he is a wonderful president.

LOL ;) I LOVE questions like this!!!! HEEEEE HEEEEE\n\nI support our country and our troops, but NOT our president.\nI am a disabled veteran and a military spouse. I pray EVERY day that this war ends soon and that my husband NEVER gets sent to Iraq.\n\nSo you figure out what my answer is....

If you look at statements sKerry has made over the years since he returned from Vietnam, his disdain for our troops is quite evident. \n\nI've known about how he's felt for some time. Good thing others are finally waking up to it. And remember, he's who the left nominated for president... he speaks for them. So think about that if you do really support the troops when you vote on Tuesday.

Repeat after me: You can be against the war but still support the troops. In fact, people who were against this war ARE for the troops - trying to protect them from fighting an unneccessary, preemptive war.\n\nDon't forget, Saddam posed no immediate threat to us whatsoever. He had no capability to attack us. Even if he has WMD's (he didn't, in case you hadn't noticed), he had no warheads capable of reaching any part of the United States. In addition, Saddam had no link to Al Qaeda and 9/11.\n\nTherefore, this war was not to defend the US or defend freedom. Hell, we could be doing a better job of defending the US and freedom right here in the good ol U. S. of A!\n\nDon't listen to the rightwing pundits who try to equate anti-Iraq war with anti-troops or anti-patriotism.\n\nI love this country!

This is what I find most amazing about the people who back these guys. Most would never dream of fighting for their country. My father fought bravely in WWII and this drives him crazy. He wouldn't be what they call a liberal. Wait - I guess they would if he disagreed with anything they say. I saw a video of Bush down in Georgia trashing a decorated Vet (I think it was Cleland). Bush avoided the war like the plague. Then they have the unbelievable nerve to try to label who the patriots are. Truly sickening. Now I'm getting pissed again.\nDon't even mention Carl Rove. That guy has done more damage to this country than anyone I can think of. He has damaged the political process for years to come. Any real patriot should punch him in the face. Okay I'm a little pissed.\nIf you actually dig into how these slime balls operate you just get sick to think anyone would have the sightest respect for this administration. Do some research on these smear campaigns. Be open minded when you do.

That's true and that's why I don't support our troops.  They are doing the wrong thing and dying for George Bush's name!

I will say it again, to those of you who support the troops but not the war, I do not want your support so please be quiet and stop undermining public policy.\n\nevery time you say that you are fueling the enemy who knows that eventually we will give up and go home because our public makes us weak!  so in essence you are killing our soldiers with your Dissent.

No but he certainly insulted my husband who has been to Iraq twice and is probably going back, who has 5 and a half years in the army, and by the way has a college degree in physcology.  (did I spell that right?  obviously I don't have the degree lol)  He is half way through a degree in electronics.  so I guess he is wrong, it angered me, I am trying not to be angry at a stupid remark.  I feel for all the families who have lost a loved one over there.  The children that hold their fathers and mothers up so high, as a hero.  Why dwell on a dumb comment, I just know I won't vote for him

yes and no....it's about time someone stood up to all the terrorist activity that has been ignored for so long. i'm prior actice duty and currently reserve. i would rather we take care of it now and try to nip it in the butt than have our children overseas fighting and dying to take care of something that we didn't. \non the othere hand i think he's a bully/coward. he threatens everyone with our military. does the *ucking moron not understand that we cannot be stretched anymore thean we already are. he makes all these decisions to take over and help a small country while he sits in front of the fireplace being served gamebirds by his "servents" and sipping fine wine with his family. if he spent christmas in a foxhole he might think twice before he comes up with some hairbrain scheme to take over and "help" (gas, gas, gas!!!!) others as much as he has. \nlord have mercy on our country. we are at our most vunerable right now. right now is not the time to recieve idol threats from other countries. BRING OUR TROOPS HOME soon to their children, spouses and other members of their families. \nwhen your at home sitting over your turkeys with your families getting ready to dig in please don't forget to say a prayer for those of us who are over there making it possible........

Why do I still call myself a Bush supporter?  Well I am sure he will send troops to the boarder but not enough to actually curb the problem.  I heard this morning that the troops that go down will not be part of the enforcement.  So are they just going to stand around and count how many people are crossing.

For my own part, I thank you. I wholeheartedly disagree with anyone who blames our troops for doing their best to fight for our country. I do not agree with the politics that sent you there, but I will fight that battle with the politicians in the best way that I can. I think that there is more support than there was for the soldiers who fought in Viet Nam, and I would like to think that this rise in support shows that more Americans are beginning to understand the need to support our troops. The argument as to why we are there, and whether it's right or wrong, is one best fought with politicians, not with those who fight so hard for us. Again, thank you!

Yes, I will. And a thought for those who oppose our presence in Iraq..\nI'm not a fan of the war or the politicians. I do, and think everyone in this country should, be respectful, thankful and compassionate to our soldiers and their families. The men and women are doing their JOBS. And, unlike you and I, have chosen to do their jobs to benefit the people of this country knowing it may cost them their lives, limbs, mental health. They do this without question and in spite of the danger. Their families support their loved ones out of love, not duty. They sacrifice out of love. I'm sure there are many family members and soldiers themselves who don't agree with the politics, but they continue to do their JOB. So, whatever your position politically, the soldiers deserve our loyalty,respect,prayers and admiration for the sacrafices they make on a daily basis while we get to be here on Yahoo Answers discussing it on a computer sitting in a chair, in a warm home. I don't know about anyone else out there, but sitting here I'm not concerned in the least that I may be shot or bombed or even get an uncomfortable chill. And no, I don't know any soldiers or any families of soldiers. I do, howerver, love this country and the life I enjoy as an American. You can't have it anywhere else in the world.

I am a supporter of President George W. Bush; especially on the war on terror and getting rid of Saddam Hussein. I also support the men and woman in our armed forces and every time one comes to my college, I say to them “Thank you for your service to our country” and each man and women appreciates those words. I know that at one time, Americans stood behind the American armed forces even if they disagreed with how they helped the world. \n\nAs for Americans who BASH BUSH, they drive me up the wall. If your are a supporter of President Bush or not, you should appreciate the fact you live in a great country and here are five reasons I appreciate living in the United States of America no matter if the President of the United States of America is a Democrat or a Republican;\n\n1. I can vote for whoever I feel is the best candidate for a position in office and I am not forced to vote for someone I do not approve of.\n\n2. I can have any type of a career I like as long as I have the skills necessary for that career.\n\n3. As a future parent, I can choose how I would like my children to be educated and if I want them to attend public or private school.\n\n4. As an individual, I can choose where I like to live as long as I can afford housing and the resources I need in order to survive.\n\n5. I am able to worship freely and attend worship where I feel is good for my beliefs. \n\nWhen President George W. Bush term is over, I will miss voting for him; however, I do hope that his Brother Jeb or a strong Republican can become the next President of the United States of America to continue the legacy that George W. Bush had done for the United States of America and for Planet Earth as well.
