Friday Morning Open Thread

Never a dull moment, huh?

With the debate starting on the new Democratic plans for Iraq, we can expect the GOPers to fall back on their "support the troops" mantra. House Minority Leader John Boehner already started it. Any Republican who says it needs a smack-down -- a hard smack-down. When you send troops to war without a plan and without the right equipment, when you don't take care of wounded troops at the Army's premier medical facility right in the nation's capitol, then you can't say you support the troops. And, any reporter who hears a Republican say that has an obligation to ask that Republican to prove the actual support they've given to the troops.

Thread away.
