Tie a yellow ribbon, or not?

In the comments on the previous post, Wonkie wrote: "I have a yellow ribbon on my car and it means, 'Support the troops, don't let them be killed for Halliburton.' The rethugs would like nothing better thatn to equate opposistion to the war with lack of support for the soldiers. Get yourself a yellow ribbon and a flag decal. Put them out there next to your Kerry sticker."

It's a good point. I already have a flag decal, right next to my Dean sticker. (The Kerry-Edwards sticker came off last week. Dean's, however, stays forever.) Maybe I'll add a yellow ribbon, but if so, I'd get a Sharpie pen and add a sentiment such as Wonkie's, or these others sent to me by my friend Judy:

"Support the Troops -- Bring them Home"

                              -- Pay them what they're worth"

                              -- give them real equipment"

                              -- so their families aren't going bankrupt & having to live on foodstamps due to the Backdoor Draft"

Here's what I'm gonna write on my decal:

Support the Troops--Maybe the President Should Too.

I've seen two vendors: 1 selling $4 blue ribbons, another selling a yellow ribbon with the usual 'support...', then 'bring them home' across the round end of the ribbon loop. That was $1, if memory serves. I'll dig around for the links.
