A lot of vets ...

Feel the same way I do about McLame:

Sen. John McCain, speaking to disabled veterans Saturday in Las Vegas, attacked his Democratic opponent, Sen. Barack Obama, for his foreign policy record, while also proposing a program that would allow veterans to acquire health care at private hospitals and not just through the Veterans Affairs Department.

The veterans, at Bally’s for their national convention, gave him a tepid reception, especially considering McCain’s life story. The Arizona senator was a Navy pilot shot down over Vietnam, tortured and held as a prisoner of war for 5 1/2 years.

Just one of 14 veterans interviewed by the Sun after his speech said he is a certain McCain voter, and the nonpartisan group’s legislative director expressed concerns about McCain’s proposed "Veterans’ Care Access Card." [my em]

...


You already have a 'Veterans' Care Access Card'. It's called your DD Form 214. Any other additional crap McSame proposes is nothing but a way to get his corporate cronies a piece of the VA pie.

Thanks to Mr. Aravosis for the link.
