I didn't have time to follow up on this sooner. Here is a bit of writing (not mine) that perhaps clarifies the difference between supporting the troops and supporting the war. See, for me, it's not about supporting a bunch of nameless grunts. It's about supporting Peeny and Isaac and Rachel's dad. And Halston and Hayden's dad. And Laura's husband. And Jessica's fiancé. And my HS classmate Lee. And my preacher's children who are in the Navy. And all the other people I know who are deployed or could be, and all the people who work with them. It means wanting them home safe. It means wanting peace.
