About 7,000 U.S. troops have been wounded in Iraq so far.
Here's what Republican convention delegates think of those wounded in combat:
You can support the troops or you can vote for the Republican. Pick one.

Yeah, it's like all these people around with the ribbon decals on their cars. Like that does something. If you want to help the troops, pull 'em out of this unwinnable war, or go enlist. Wearing crap and putting crap on your car, only makes the vendors rich.

I like the HUMONGOUS American flag decals on the back of SUVs, too. Brings tears to my eyes, and bile to my throat, to contemplate the vicious circle of uberpatriotism, conspicuous oil over-consumption and terrorism.

People who wear those bandages insult any soldier who has been in combat. They are a disgrace but is it surprising coming from a party delegate whose nominee refuses to even acknowledge the death of soldiers in Iraq.
