Glenn Greenwald on Salon.com:
A fairly reliable rule of thumb in our political debates is that those who most frequently invoke The Troops to justify their policy views are the ones who care least about the troops, who see them as nothing but props to exploit for political manipulation. For the last week, Joe Lieberman and Lindsey Graham have been running around accusing anyone who opposes their photo suppression amendment of indifference to the lives of the Troops based on their claim that top military officials and the Commander-in-Chief say that release of the photos will aid Al Qaeda recruitment and inflame anti-American sentiment.
