People are disagreeing with your glib, "Fuck the Troops" since your glib 
"Fuck the Troops" doesn't convey what you mean, above. (Harry was 
responding to your FIRST comment, "Fuck the Troops." not to your attempt to 
explain yourself.

Disagreeing with your glib little quote is just that: disagreement. They 
are not liberals because they disagree with you.
