Considering the GOP's animosity towards the homeless, I suppose this means they don't support the troops? Perhaps these troops chose to be homeless as well.

About 500-1,000 of the 200,000 homeless U.S. veterans served in Iraq or Afghanistan.

For those that have not yet read Dana Priest's excellent, humbling article in the Washington Post on Feb. 18th ("Soldiers Face Neglect, Frustration At Army's Top Medical Facility"), you must do so. Chris Matthews referred to the article as Pulitzer Prize caliber on Hardball last night and rightfully so. Priest and her co-contributor to the story, Anne Hull, comprehensively document appalling conditions at an outpost of the Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Consequently, they find disgraceful treatment of our brave men and women who gave more than their fighting spirit and courage to their country- they gave their limbs and often times tragically their emotional and mental stability. Too many injured soldiers, after returning home for medical treatment and becoming outpatients in Building 18, find themselves sentenced to a prison of inadequate medical care in an impoverished medical facility- a facility considered America's top Army hospital.

Before the Right-Wing Noise Machine spins yet another failure of the Bush Administration, let us contemplate who truly supports the troops. Every patriotic American must reflect upon the treatment of war veterans in this country and reassess what it means to support our nation's warriors- whether you support the Iraq War or not.
