Following yesterday’s provocative — and important — thread on the Bergdahl fiasco, today, Wounded Warrior J.R. Salzman is taking on all the liberals who have apparently rediscovered their outrage at American military deaths:
Amazing to see those who basically cheered when a soldier died under Bush bring out the fainting couches for gold star families under Trump.

You assholes never supported us under Bush. You cheered every time the soldier death count ticker got higher on CNN. We were political ammo.

You marched in your little antiwar protests. You threw fake blood on our recruiting centers. You protested outside Walter Reed every Friday.

You shouted about the fierce sense of moral urgency to immediately end the wars and bring all the troops home. And then what happened?

Then Obama got elected and you disappeared. You turned your back on the wars. Your protests were all for show. F you and your politics.

Do you think those of us who served have forgotten how you treated us? How you cheered for failure? We haven't. We never will. Fuck you all.

The value of our troops’ lives should never be contingent on who’s sitting in the White House. Ever.
