Clearly in Limbaugh's view of the world there are two kinds of soldiers. One that accepts the views of the president and the right on the war, and bad soldiers. This is highly insulting to the troops, claiming that if they don't stand the party line when they come home from Iraq, that some how they are not real soldiers. I think the contrary is true, it takes a real solider to come home from a war, and speak what they view to be the truth of that war.
