"days" getting a little too preachy for my taste

this week on days there have been lots of "support our troops" speeches. you've got the guys going to rescue phillip talking about how brave the real soldiers are, putting their lives on the line, sooooo honorable.

belle and mimi ran into a soldier's wife in the chapel and talked about how brave, what a sacrifice they were all making. the wife was like, i understand him though because i used to be a soldier too, but my family needs me more. ((sniff, sniff))

sami trying to convince tony to not hurt phillip because he was fighting for his country, he should be shown respect, not used for revenge.

i know, i know, soap opera's aren't known for their subtlety, but COME ON!!!! i guess i can't really blame them for trying.
