McSame Is Anti-Veteran and His Voting Record Proves It

Why any of the 95% of regular Americans might vote for McSame is a mystery, unless they like shooting themselves in the foot and voting against their own interests.
 
That includes any veteran, like the misguided, uninformed, voting against himself vet shilling on that "Dear Mr. Obama" video, who casts a ballot for McSame.  J. Sid is vet who only gives lip service to veterans and his senate record shows he's anti-veteran.
 
From the Washington Independent"In 2006, McCain voted against, while Obama supported, an amendment to provide $20 million to the Dept. of Veteran Affairs for health-care facilities. The measure was defeated, 39-53.

"In March 2006, McCain opposed" and Obama backed ”an assured funding stream for veteran's health care that took into account annual changes in veterans' population and inflation that would have been paid for by reducing the tax cut for those earning more than $1 million and closing some corporate loopholes. The amendment failed by 46-54.

"McCain was one of 13 senators to oppose an April 2006 vote to spend $430 million for medical services for outpatient care and treatment for veterans. Obama supported the measure.

"In July 2006 McCain voted against setting up a $1-billion trust fund for military health facilities. The trust would have been funded by repealing tax cuts for those making more than $1 million a year. Obama backed the amendment, which did not pass the Senate

"In 2005, McCain opposed spending $500 million a year from 2006 to 2010 for counseling services for veterans with mental illness, post-traumatic stress disorder and substance abuse. Obama voted for the measure that failed by 43-55 margin."

Vote pro-veterans; vote for Obama.
