Dixie Chicks on 60 minutes

Lot of passion this morning over the Dixie Chicks with their interview on 60 minutes Sunday. We actually stumbled onto an interesting discussion from a few Dixie Chicks fans that told me "I support the troops but am against the war"

Can you really support the troops and be against the war at the same time. Absolutely not!!!!
It's a double negative. Think about it. It doesn't make sense. This is one of these little buzz phrases used by politicians and the main stream media that people latch on to without thinking.

Have you heard the phrase, partisanship stops at the water's edge? Those days are long gone. The time for being against the war is before there is a declaration of war. Once the president commits to war you stand behind the President's decision as Commander and Chief, you support the troops and support the war effort. For those of you who say I support the troops but don't support the war, what are you supporting???? their choice of haircut? Support the troops would mean supporting their mission.

Charlie Daniels told me on my show a few months ago that everybody that he has met in Iraq believes they are winning and the press is not reporting it and military men and women feel demoralized when they hear a constant barage of Anti - Bush, Anti- War, and Anti Military sentiment. Let's support our troops and support the war efforts and do away with treasonous double talk.
