Reply #31: Why is that ridiculous? It's an observation

[BattyDem]

If there are people mocking ribbons in other threads, then go complain over there. This thread was not intended to mock anyone or anything. I made an observation and was curious if other DUers were seeing the same thing in their area and if so, what they thought the reason for it was. That's all.

The problem with most repugs is they equate 'supporting the troops' with blindly supporting Bushco in everything they do."

The key word is "most" ... not all, but "most" - and there's no denying the fact in that statement. We've all seen how the repugs have hijacked our flag and made it synonymous with Bush. I chose not to display a ribbon for that reason. That's my choice. So what?

I getting tired of all these strawman arguments that have popped up lately. I post one thing and someone comes along, twists the facts to create a new argument and I end up defending comments I never made and intentions I never had!

I'm sorry if I offended you. That wasn't my intention. I just wanted to know what DUers thought about the disappearing ribbons. That's it.
