There you go hiding behind “veterans” again.

FYI the vast MAJORITY of veterans HATE ron paul because of his PROVEN lack of support for the troops.

He has voted against military pay raises

He has voted against providing better healthcare to the troops

He has voted against providing the troops with equipment they need.

He has voted against funding the renovation of existing as well as new construction of family housing, barracks, post exchanges and commissaries.

He wants to kick veterans to the curb by eliminating the VA instead of returning it to it’s original purpose which was care of veterans who were medically discharged due to line of duty injury OR those who were wounded in combat. Before clinton f*cked up the VA, those veterans I just mentioned had priority over all others, but clinton opened it up to all veterans and made it a first come first serve basis.

paul has also voted against increasing educational, disability, and retirement benefits for veterans.

Veterans also hate ron paul because of his blame America first reasoning and his weak stand on the threats we face.

And what “wide cross section” of Americans are you talking about? Are you talking about the career college students living on daddy’s dime? Or are you talking about the paranoid schitzophrenics with the 32 personalities who line their apartments with tinfoil?

IT is very easy to smear Ron Paul on these type things as the votes you mentioned were probably against a much larger bill that included many unconstitutional items.

If you look at the bills Ron Paul has introduced in support of veterans, you will find a much different story. You should be railing against all the other congressmen, who will not support Ron Paul bills which are specifically designed to benefit veterans.

Or you could rail against the congressmen who put money into bills to support V.A. operations in their districts, even if it doesn’t provide the maximum service to our veterans.
