They may vandalize soldiers' graves, but don't question their patriotism!



That's right folks! The same folks that run around with "We oppose the war but we support the troops" have shown their true colors in Texas (H/t: Stop the ACLU):
An all-American kid from a little all-American town, the 22-year-old Marine lance corporal died heroically in Iraq. More than a thousand people turned out Wednesday as a white hearse carried his body to burial in the historic 1800s Cooke Memorial Cemetery.

Within hours, the grave was desecrated. About 30 sprays of flowers were ripped apart, petals strewn over the loose earth. Flags decorating the gravesite were also torn down and sentimental notes and posters shredded.

Burris was killed Oct. 8 by an explosive device in al-Anbar Province.

Minutes before his death, he rescued two soldiers wounded when a device exploded under their military vehicle. When Burris returned to the vehicle to retrieve some sensitive equipment, another bomb detonated, killing him, his family said.

Words escape me. These clowns might as well have walked up to the family's door and spit in their face. But these are the people that "support the troops" Yep, just like good lod Markos Moulitsas "Screw them" Zuniga (That's the moonbat that runs Daily Kooks Kos, the most radical, bile-spewing, America-hating, left-wing blogs on the planet.) I can just see Chris Matthews and Randi "I got mugged by a bottle of Ketel One" Rhodes laughing it up at the sight of the above picture.

But don't you dare question their patriotism.
