Yuppie, Go Home!
The other week I was driving to or from work and saw a bumper sticker that said: "Protect our Troops: Bring Them Home" or something along those lines. Well, sorry, pal, but the soldiers I know are not interested in being protected by a middle-aged yuppie with his senator on speed-dial. The troops I know are men committed to the protection of government of, by, and for the people. They are willing to put their lives on the line to protect young mothers, grandparents, babies, retired veterans, children, teenagers, and even middle-aged yuppies who enjoy the blessings of freedom. There is such a thing as heroism, and believe me, it costs a whole lot more than a bumper sticker.
