Then you would be wrong, because I don't feel disrespected.

Wow. Generalize and stereotype much?

Then when trying to make a point will use a classic photo like this (that American soldiers died during) and (*)(*)(*)(*) on it to get their liberal point across.
The point was to illustrate the headline "War on Global Warming." It's a somewhat clever way to do that.

What is next a picture of trees buried at Arlington?
Maybe. So what?

Then they try to play it off like its a joke and anyone offended by their stupidity has no sense of humor.
I just think anyone offended by the cover is easily offended -- or was looking to be offended in this case because they think the cover was dreamed up by liberals who hate the military.

The image simply is not offensive or disrespectful.

Hence the "I think". And apparently, some of us definitely do.

Just Liberals

Clever in whose mind, offensive in mine and many others.

Maybe. So what?

In your opinion, which you have a right to have because of soldiers like that. Because of soldiers like the ones pictured idiots can use them to try to sell a false political doctrine. I think it was week, stupid and offensive and if the person doing it had any real creativity they could have come up with something that didn't abuse our heros images.
