John McCain’s Latest Lie: "John McCain is always there for our troops."

Pay attention people, this is your future at stake here. How much do our troops mean to you? Neither they nor their families hold any special place in the heart of John McCain.

His voting record shows a clear and distinct history of cutting spending to help our troops, especially those who need medical help after he voted to put them into harms way:

John McCain voted AGAINST the Webb GI Bill

McCain voted AGAINST bill to minimize periods of time between deployment of units sent to Iraq.

McCain voted AGAINST $20 Million to VA for health care facilities.

McCain voted AGAINST $430,000,000 to VA for Medical Services.

McCain voted AGAINST increasing Vet-medical services $1.5 billion in FY2007

McCain voted AGAINST increasing Vet-medical care by $1.8 billion.

McCain voted to TABLE an amendment for $322,000,000 for safety equipment for U.S. forces. "Table"= vote never hits floor. War was already in full swing.

McCain voted to TABLE a vote for $1 Billion for National Guard and Reserve Equipment in Iraq due to a shortage of helmets, tents, bullet-proof inserts, & tactical vests. Again, war was already in full swing.

And he has the nerve to attack Barack Obama for not visiting wounded troops in Germany after being restricted from doing so by the Pentagon.

And just remember, you will never find this voting record in the main stream media. Fair and Balanced, indeed.

I am against this illegal war, but if your are going to vote to send our troops to fight against an enemy have the decency to equip them with the necessary protection and weaponry to get the job done and keep injury and death totals down. Plus, stand behind them and their families to get the medical attention they need for defending your selfish, egotistical reasons for sending them into battle in the first place.

John McCain may act like an honorable man but his bold faced lies at a time when he is trying to gain as many votes as possible shows his disrespect, not only for our troops, for the voting public. He is once again stooping to old politics of attacking your opponent instead of taking the high road and presenting yourself as the best choice.

Oh, but, he often forgets how he voted in the past. Yeah, maybe that’s why he thinks he is “always there for our troops”.
