Most people who are against the war aren't against the troops. So it always confuses me when conversations go like this:
Wreath Hanger: "War is bad, lets stop the war in Iraq."
Crazy Condo President: "Support our troops."
Wreath Hanger: "I have no problems with the troops."
Crazy Condo President: "Your against war, so your against our troops."
Wreath Hanger: "No I want peace, and the troops to come home safe now."
Crazy Condo President: "Terrorist!"
It odds because both sides want the troops to stay alive. But one side doesn't see this.
Anyways back on topic. Our community was the last to get condos in the city. Our board was so against it, claiming it would be the downward spiral of our community. They couldn't stop the condos from coming in, but they did limit their space, which turned out to hurt them. As our community would have gotten a large sum of money for the land. Now the condos are part of the landscape and commnity, and it seems dumb that all that fuss was for nothing. That money could have been far better used in the up keep of our community park. But I guess a parking lot is better.
