Why is this misleading and what are they saying the significance is? So what if these guys did or did not serve in the military? Sorry I'm dense.

The list implies that Repubs/conservatives that didn't serve are duplictious.

Why is this misleading

ONE thing (of many, I'm sure) that is misleading, is listing John F'ing Kerry's BS medals that he wrote himself up for.

[Steel Wolf]

It's misleading because it shows who DID serve on the Democratic side, and who DID NOT serve on the Republican side. I think if they wanted to show the full list from both, it would be more fair.

Still, the point is basically moot. Many of those museam pieces are draft era malcontents who stumbled their way into office. They clearly hold no special attachment to the present day military, a fact that is not lost on us.
