A Neuharth Says Bring The Troops Home: World War II veteran and USA Today founder Al Neuharth unleashed some controversy recently when he wrote in the pages of the McPaper: " 'Support Our Troops' is a wonderful patriotic slogan.

That should be our New Year's resolution." Here's the column in its entirety: http://www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/columnist/neuharth/2004-12-22-holidays-troops_x.htm
