Just because Kerry didn't vote for that huge budget doesn't mean he doesn't support the troops. Bush said at one time the Iraq oil profits would help pay for everything plus more but he still keeps coming back asking for money. Even some Republicans in congress are starting to get upset about this one. I supported Kerry because he was more likely to bring the troops back quicker, at least some of them. He is also less likely to start some new war where we have to send even more troops.
"So supporting the candidate that sent them over for a reason that fell through, and wants to send more troops over and keep them over there longer which leads to a better chance of getting killed" Sounds like quality logical reasoning to me.
