That's right. Los Angeles Times columnist (and a contributor to Time magazine) Joel Stein says, "I don't support our troops." Check out today's Los Angeles Times (Tuesday, January 24, 2006). He begins (emphasis mine):

"I DON'T SUPPORT our troops. This is a particularly difficult opinion to have, especially if you are the kind of person who likes to put bumper stickers on his car. Supporting the troops is a position that even Calvin is unwilling to urinate on."

And in a particularly condescending passage, Stein asserts that our troops were "tricked into fighting in Iraq."

"I do sympathize with people who joined up to protect our country, especially after 9/11, and were tricked into fighting in Iraq. I get mad when I'm tricked into clicking on a pop-up ad, so I can only imagine how they feel."

How cute. Being deployed to Iraq is analogous to clicking on a pop-up ad on your computer. Ugh.

There's more, but I've had enough.
