McCain's Voting Record: He Does Not Support TheTroops and Veterans



The danger of McCain attacking Obama for "not supporting the troops" is that it opens up his own record for scrutiny. McCain has been relying up until now on the fact that he was once a prisoner of war to convince people that he naturally supports the troops, however his record belies that claim.

Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America have given McCain a "D" for his voting record while Obama earned a "B". Disabled American Veterans gave McCain a 20% voting record and Obama an 80% voting record.

The media continue to give McCain a free pass for his numerous gaffes, but the assumption that McCain is supportive of the troops is not substantiated by his voting record. And that's not my opinion, that's the opinion of the Veterans themselves.

It's time this old fraud was called out on this.
