October 3, 2008 - Watching John McCain attack our veterans has become the norm these past few years, with his status as a symbol for the American veteran merely a weird plot twist in his history; We have watched him stand on the Senate floor for five-and-a-half hours, leading the fight against the dwell time amendment that would give our troops more time between tours. We have seen him speak out against the 21st Century GI Bill that would expand education benefits for our troops for the first time since the Senator himself used them to pay for college. Like a bizarro-world version of Mark Foley ruthlessly fighting pedophiles while being one himself, so goes McCain's inexplicable record on veterans issues.
But finally, he's put his mouth where his money is. McCain and Palin, who both have children in the Armed Forces, have declared Ohio troops and hospitalized vets unqualified voters.
I get emails from McCain's Ohio arm to try to keep an eye on what they're doing there, since the state will probably decide the election, but happens to have a Republican party establishment that would purge every voter without a butler from the rolls if it had the chance. This is what they sent out after the debate last night under Palin's name:The Obama-Biden Democrats and their allies are exploiting loopholes in Ohio election laws that we fear may result in unqualified voters casting ballots.go here to see what this is all about

McCain-Palin called Ohio Veterans "unqualified" voters
When it comes to veterans, there are two kinds of them in McCain's eyes. The ones who support him and the ones he can use. If he can't use them, they don't deserve anything. People need to understand it's not a matter of what McCain claims when it comes to veterans, it's what he does that matters. The more this nation finds out about McCain since he started running for the presidency, we find he is all talk, votes against veterans and cannot be trusted. If he's turning his back on veterans, he'll turn his back on anyone.
