Sen. John McCain gets a D when it comes to veterans issues, according to a new congressional report card released Tuesday by Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.
Sen. Barack Obama fares better - he earned a B.
The New York-based national veterans advocacy group graded every member of Congress on how he or she voted on major issues affecting 1.7 million vets from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
TSO (Thus Spake Ortner) http://3-116thsniper.blogspot.com/ posts on This Aint Hell, and wrote a series of three articles (linked below) on IAVA’s scorecard (it gave McDermott an “A” rating and McCain a “D”) They’ve released a press guide to bloggers with a totally biased rating system and there are folks out there trying to blunt the effect of it . I've been told that Obama’s Vets Director (the below-mentioned Phillip Carter) is a founding member of the IAVA.

About six months ago, I started thinking 'where did the money come from for Obama'. I have four daughters who went to College, and we were middle class, and money was tight. We (including my girls) worked hard and there were lots of student loans. I started looking into Obama's life. Around 1979 Obama started college at Occidental in California. He is very open about his two years at Occidental, he tried all kinds of drugs and was wasting his time but, even though he had a brilliant mind, did not apply himself to his studies. 'Barry' (that was the name he used all his life) during this time had two roommates, Muhammad Hasan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid, both from Pakistan.
During the summer of 1981, after his second year in college, he made a 'round the world' trip. Stopping to see his mother in Indonesia, next Hyderabad in India, three weeks in Karachi, Pakistan where he stayed with his roommate's family, then off to Africa to visit his father's family. My question - Where did he get the money for this trip? Neither I, nor any one of my children would have had money for a trip like this when they where in college.
When he came back he started school at Columbia University in New York. It is at this time he wants everyone to call him Barack - not Barry. Do you know what the tuition is at Columbia? It's not cheap! to say the least. Where did he get money for tuition? Student Loans? Maybe. After Columbia, he went to Chicago to work as a Community Organizer for $12,000. a year. Why Chicago? Why not New York? He was already living in New York.
By 'chance' he met Antoin 'Tony' Rezko, born in Aleppo Syria, and a real estate developer in Chicago. Rezko has been convicted of fraud and bribery this year. Rezko, was named 'Entrepreneur of the Decade' by the Arab-American Business and Professional Association'. About two years later, Obama entered Harvard Law School. Do you have any idea what tuition is for Harvard Law School? Where did he get the money for Law School? More student loans?
After Law school, he went back to Chicago. Rezko offered him a job, which he turned down. But, he did take a job with Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Galland. Guess what? They represented 'Rezar' which Rezko's firm. Rezko was one of Obama's first major financial contributors when he ran for office in Chicago. In 2003, Rezko threw an early fundraiser for Obama which Chicago Tribune reporter David Mendelland claims was instrumental in providing Obama with 'seed money' for his U.S. Senate race.
In 2005, Obama purchased a new home in Kenwoood District of Chicago for $1.65 million (less than asking price). With ALL those Student Loans - Where did he get the money for the property? On the same day Rezko's wife, Rita, purchased the adjoining empty lot for full price. The London Times reported that Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born Billionaire loaned Rezko $3.5 million three weeks before Obama's new home was purchased. Obama met Nadhmi Auchi many times with Rezko.
Now, we have Obama running for President. Valerie Jarrett, was Michele Obama's boss. She is now Obama's chief advisor and he does not make any major decisions without talking to her first. Where was Jarrett born? Ready for this? Shiraz, Iran! Do we see a pattern here? Or am I going crazy?
On May 10, 2008 The Times reported, Robert Malley advisor to Obama was 'sacked' after the press found out he was having regular contacts with 'Hamas', which controls Gaza and is connected with Iran.
This past week, buried in the back part of the papers, Iraqi newspapers reported that during Obama's visit to Iraq, he asked their leaders to do nothing about the war until after he is elected, and he will 'Take care of things'.
Oh, and by the way, remember the college roommates that where born in Pakistan? They are in charge of all those 'small' Internet campaign contribution for Obama. Where is that money coming from? The poor and middle class in this country? Or could it be from the Middle East?
And the final bit of news. On September 7, 2008, The Washington Times posted a verbal slip that was made on 'This Week' with George Stephanapoulos. Obama on talking about his religion said, 'My Muslim faith'. When questioned, 'he make a mistake'. Some mistake!
All of the above information is on line. If you would like to check it - Wikipedia, encyclopedia, Barack Obama; Tony Rezko; Valerie Jarrett: Daily Times - Obama visited Pakistan in 1981; The Washington Times - September 7, 2008; The Times May 10, 2008.
Now the BIG question - Why haven't all of our 'intelligent' members of the press been reporting this?
A phrase that keeps ringing in my ear - 'Beware of the enemy from within'!!!

NYC group = no credibility.
PMSNBC has been pumping this BS all night.
This is for the old people of FL.
ANother faux vets group full of rank leftists
Yep. You nailed it, Freema...
“Associate” members, posers and phonies.
I got hung up a bit, see Post #4. Looking around, I saw reports that 8,000 demonstrators marched to the Pepsi Center at the DNC convention. I don’t remember hearing about it. D NBC ABC CBS NC must have decided it wasn’t working for them?
Lamh Foistenach Abu!
That's all I need to see. :-D
This is a left wing vets group
Look at their ratings:
http://www.votesmart.org/issue_rating_detail.php?r_id=3439
They give Kerry a B and Murtha a B and Reid an A- for Pete’s sake!
A quick search does not reveal much about this group.
The bald-headed scumbag spokesman for this group is a far left liberal who appears weekly on the Rachel Maddow Radio program. I don’t care if he is a veteran or not. The man has no honor. I wish a real veteran would kick his teeth in.
It’s the same dipsh*ts that gave Duncan Hunter bad grades. I researched them months ago.
And to think that’s only a fraction of the dirtbag’s resume’.
Wonder what they rated Murtha?
The IVAW Winter Tour (Post #4) is all above the Mason-Dixon Line : (
They’re ready to hit again.
