back when they rolled that out (Bush era) was when they really started assaulting people with vacuous catchphrases. Opposition to the Iraq was was answered with 'support the troops!' which made no sense... okay, I support them, I don't want them to go get PTSD from urban warfare and killing civilians and leave their lives here to sit around in a tent in the desert at 130 degrees. Another one was if you opposed anything Bush/Cheney was doing, "Why do you hate America??", which is obviously a ridiculously loaded question and very shitty debate tactic.
Support our troops is a hollow catch phrase...
