The cartoon is pointing out the fact that the military is being flagrantly abused. The cartoon is SUPPORTING the military because it's trying to change the fact that the military is being abused.

You point out how the military and vets are being treated badly and all the Right does is accuse you of being against the war and the troops. It's pointless arguing with them because all they fucking care about is their tax cuts...... if they truly cared about the war or the military they wouldn't want tax cuts until after the war.
*PS See my Voinovich post where he says the same thing...... go figure a GOP senator speaking out.
