As bad as things are for grass-roots conservatives following President Bush’s “Read my lips: No new amnesty” speech, at least we’re not in the absurd rhetorical position of confused moonbats.

Bryan at Sanctuary, a photoshop wizard for Hot Air, perfectly depicts the quandary of the “Bring our troops home now” crowd. Bryan writes:

‘”Support the Troops - Bring them Home Now!” has been such a farcical call and bumper sticker for the Left for so long, what’s gonna happen when the NatGuards are deployed here at home?’

Logicians all. Because nothing says “home” to a member of the Wisconsin National Guard like the Arizona desert.

Under the wingnuts’ logic - utterly flawed and tortured-to-the-point-of-laughability logic - we’re in an “absurd rhetorical position.”

Where, exactly, does that leave them?
