ATLANTA (AP) -- Democrats hope to enlist military veterans in another type of fight - for majority control of the House.

Looking ahead to next year's elections, Democrats are trying to recruit at least two dozen military veterans to challenge Republican incumbents.

Democrats say candidates with military on their resumes appeal to independent voters and can help the party break the GOP grip on Washington.

Here is their first candidate:

Don’t they mean transgenders? I thought everyone loved transgenders?

[DuncanWaring]

Clearly a fraud!

Look at that tie!

[johnthebaptistmoore]

Does this, also, include the return of John Kerry, who went to Vietnam?

[where's_the_Outrage?]

Not in the article, but they have their 2nd candidate, a former SEAL:

[Texas Eagle]

Here's a second candidate.

Bradsey should be game now that Preezy Urkel pardoned him. Errr, I mean her. Errrrr, I mean it.

Did Urkel also pardon Buck Private Bow Bergdahl?

[IronJack]

Yeah, cuz everybody knows how much the libs respect our military.

Surplus store hero.

Democrats have no idea who military people are. They’re either apolitical or Conservative. A tiny minority become Dems, but they challenge their perceptions constantly, and most of them eventually see through the fraudocrat party.

Just my experience. In the armed forces, you have to deal with reality, and have a strong radar for bullshit, which works against the dems.

Democrats don’t even know how to fake patriotism so they are trying to buy some. Go away stupid persons.

[NoKoolAidforMe]

Is this a man or a woman? Whatever it is, it is a disgrace with the crooked tie and sloppy hair.

[SoFloFreeper]

Duckworth in the Senate is a prime example. Disabled, minority, woman vet. Plus she had a very weak opponent who hated Trump.

I hope they fail.

Chelsea Manning is available:

The last time the Dems. took back the House was by out flanking the GOP on the Right. They ran Republican clones and the Republicucks ran squishy Moderate losers.

[Texas Eagle]

Dang it. That’s the pic I tried to post. Grrr.

[Texas Eagle]

Just how many soldiers who stole military documents did Urkel pardon on his way out the door?

[Doogle]

Fraud

[Lysandru]

I really have trouble understanding my fellow West Pointers who consider themselves "Progressive." They are usually fine, patriotic people. But the Democrime Party is full of anti-American slime.

Seriously, which party is the main home for people who hate the Constitution, and by extension the country, my comrades were sworn to defend?

Kerry is the textbook example. Like Bill Clinton, he wanted to be JFK. So he made a political calculation and joined the Navy. So far, so good. But, at some point during the 1960s, he had an epiphany that he could do better as a traitor than a patriot—especially in MA. But for Ohio, he would have gotten away it it.

The dude isn't old enough to be an E-7 or have that many ribbons. He's got more medals than a Russian general.

Bowe Bergdahl is a Sergeant E-5.
