This is absolutely priceless.

They support the troops, but don’t know what they look like.

Blackfive has had the best response to this so far:

Seriously, though, how screwed up must you be to post about how much your party supports the troops, but not know who your troops are? ‘Embarassing’ hardly begins to describe this error.

Yep. I believe this has happened before, too – I’ll have to do some digging in my archives as I believe I’ve blogged about a case where Democrats (or Democrat supporters) ran an ad using soldiers that were not American.

Update I: Found it. It was a MoveOn.org ad that used images of British soldiers, not US soldiers.

Update II: The page using the image of the Canadian soldier has been changed.

Sidenote: I’m still curious about the banner on the DNC’s Military Vets and Families page. When was the last time you saw that many happy Democrats in one room?
