Making Fun of the Wounded

The stylish accessory at the Republican convention appears to be a bandaid with a purple heart on it. It's been spotted on CNN, even. The delegates have stooped so low as to make fun of Americans wounded in combat. How can ANYONE vote Republican, knowing that they hate our troops and think that getting wounded in battle is trivial?

I cannot believe how angry I am at this grave insult. It's a slap in the face to every soldier in our armed forces. It's a slap in the face to the military itself, and the rules that govern the award of the Purple Heart (I'll give you a hint, nobody can nominate himself for one, his commander has to do it). The fact that the Republicans are not only sporting this grotesque insult, but FLAUNTING it, makes me mad enough to scream.

The Republican party has sent our soldiers to die in Iraq for a lie, and now they are making light of those wounded. How can ANYONE support them?
