If you look at where all the assistance and care packages etc are coming from, it has NOTHING to do with the politics. Most all groups are organized by family members who have a loved one serving.

That is what supporting the troops should be but unfortunately the neocons decided to politicize the term in order to prey on peoples emotions and garner support. It is the same thing they did with the word terrorist. Somehow we now lump anyone that doesn't agree with the US policy as a terrorist or a terrorist sympathizer.
