G) we love our fellow Americans that were brave enough to enlist, but we dispise our President for leading us into an unnecessary war predicated on LIES
when Repubs do it it's okay though?
the GOP congress under Clinton
voted to cut off funding for the troops fighting in Kosovo in order to end the war? Yet when they did it, it was not anti-American? But somehow as the Dems are getting ready to do the very same thing if Bush vetos the current bill, it IS anti-American? How very hypocritical of you mindless bushbots. It looks like the only ones that are anti-American are those of you that support putting our troops through the meat grinder in Iraq though you supported cutting the funds off to end that last war.
or do you mean like FOX supports the war?
In 1999, The Economist reported that Murdoch ( Fox News owner) had made £1.4 billion ($2.1 billion) in profits over the previous 11 years but had paid no net corporation tax. It further reported, after an examination of what was available of the accounts, that Murdoch would normally have expected to pay a corporate tax of approximately $350 million. The article explained that the corporation's complex structure, international scope and use of offshore havens allowed News Corporation to avoid tax[
Support the Troops = Not paying Tax = No money for weapons!!!!

Can you not understand the distinction between the two? Soldiering is a job...an honorable one. And when employed...often, you are asked to do things that you do not agree with - but you do it, because it is your job.
Therefore, I can respect the troops and the fact that they are doing the job that they are ordered to do....but that doesn't mean I like the decisions of their employer.
People who are anti-war (in particular, THIS war) can speak out against it without disparaging the troops. They clearly know the difference...why don't you?
As well....I don't know too many registered Dems or Reps who agree with ALL policies of their chosen party...

G) I support the republicans even though the terrorists are in Afghanistan and Pakistan but they invaded Iraq where they did not exist until we attacked them.

None of the above, since the first comment is reasonable while all the others are like saying:
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.....but its just a piece of paper

I remember on the news that many of the troops said " If you don't support the war, You don't support us."

G) I respect the fact that these people were willing to fight for our country but I am sorry they had to go. I am sorry that many had to die. But I hope that the rest can come home to be with their families, as soon as possible.

Troops are people.
War is not people.
Therefore, they are not the same thing and it is possible to support one and not the other. Just because you support the war doesn't mean you support the troops.

none of the above. try this one, maybe spelled out it will be easier for you to understand.
G) i am for protecting Americans while they are in harms way, but I'm against the bottom feeding cowardly politicians that have sent them into harms way while lying to the American people about why they were sent into harms way in the first place.

G) I love my country, but hate Bush policies.
A perfectly reasonable belief.
After all, last time I checked, America is still "Land of the Free and Home of the Brave", where we have the freedom to be entitled to our own opinion.
Sorry you are opposed to American Ideals.
