Shamefully Politicizing the War
The Democrats have just been "dying" -- no pun intended -- to score political points off soldiers' deaths in Iraq. Now they've even resorted to putting flag-draped coffins in their political ads.
It seems likely that the stunt will backfire -- and it should. While supporters of the war believe no military death should go unhonored, apparently its opponents believe no military death should go unused.

Of course, they also use the strawman criticism "if you support the war, then why don't you go fight?" Which dhead and others have even leveled against Carol here.
Well, at least Carol, et. al. SUPPORT the military from home. Which is more that can be said for the girlie man liberals.
So dhead supports abortion rights? well then GO GET AN ABORTION, and start with yourself.
Sticks and stones, love.
C'mon, COPioneer... no need to call for our resident Dittohead to off himself, abortion-style. It would be (at minimum) 72 trimesters too late, and probably more than that.
That said, it isn't clear why no middle ground is allowed between opposition to the war on the one hand, and serving on the front line on the other.
"...it isn't clear why no middle ground is allowed between opposition to the war on the one hand, and serving on the front line on the other."
Probably for the same reason that some in your camp conflate opposition to the war with rooting for the terrorists, or insisting that we should move to Iraq, France, etc.
Carol's memoir would be called "Hoity Toady."
The above is a perfect example of either a total lack of familiarity with or denial of reality.
