Vets launch anti-Obama tour in state

There's no need to be rude. Point out what you think needs correcting in a polite way and I'm sure you're more likely to see it corrected.

Also, the fact that McCain's new surge of energy in Maine is going to be dedicated to tearing his opponent down instead of propping his own sagging image up tells you all you need to know about McCain-Palin. When their backs are against the wall, they'll just get nastier.

McCain-Palin: Drink your Hater-ade!

Copying and pasting from a dictionary does not prove anything. Definition is not usage. Make a point next time you post, please.

And what does your personal vendetta on grammar accomplish? Is correct grammar more patriotic then actually engaging in a discussion about the issues?

Attempts to divert or discredit reporting with unrelated complaints and petty grammatical issues are the tools of those wish to undermine the democratic process. As American citizens, we all have and should exercise the right to vote. That requires education and discussion of the issues and your actions which hinder that are quite UNpatriotic.

I will no longer feed this flame of this diversion.

Hey NavyVet, care to cite some supporting references or are we to take an anonymous posters words as automatic truth?

11:1 Obama voted to support the troops

McCain I know voted at least once against them too because he didn't like a "timetable". Take note that right now Iraq is calling for such a timetable.

Also according to you most of the active troops deployed abroad must be sellouts too because they have donated six times more to Obama than McCain and Paul?

"Military Times began with a list of more than 80,000 subscribers and former subscribers to Army Times, Navy Times, Marine Corps Times and Air Force Times who gave the papers their e-mail addresses."

It does not take a rocket scientist to know the poll is not representative of the opinions of the military as a whole. The group surveyed is older, more senior in rank and less ethnically diverse than the overall armed services. Plus you had to subscribe to the paper!

While the Huffington Post is generally more left leaning they do make a point about the validity of the Military Times poll.

Searching online also revealed a little bit more about McCain's voting record.

He voted against extra funding for the Department of Veteran Affairs for Medical Services for outpatient care and treatment for veterans.

Voted against the creation of a reserve fund to allow for an increase in Veterans' medical care by $1.8 billion by eliminating abusive tax loopholes.

Here is a pretty damning collection of even more votes and actions I found. There are links provided to the actual bills and votes so you are welcome to read them and decide for yourself. Honestly I only had time to follow about 3 of them but they check out.
