As a young Republican who has a bumper sticker indicating support for President Bush and his policies but is not lining up at military recruiting offices, I feel compelled to respond to a May 19 letter.
Supporting a policy does not mean one has to become directly involved. A heterosexual who supports gay marriage would not marry someone of the same sex just because he or she supports gay marriage.
The same holds true for those who support the war: Just because one supports the troops does not mean he or she has to enlist.
