Notice the [/Sarcasm]. And you were lied into Nam, just like those who are in the Military today were lied into War. Its just the reality of world. Lies=Truth and Truth=Lies. But Orwell called it doublespeak.

Hey, I don't run the show. But How many soldiers you hear of who get all the care they need? My point still stands and you know it.

McCain's son (Jimmy) was deployed during the Surge. But alas how many Democrats will acknowledge that? None as they think McCain is McBush.
Other then that, I haven't checked up on it. I only know of 2 other Congressmen or women who have sons or daughters deployed. Jim Webb and Duncan Hunter. So its just not a Republican thing but a Democratic thing as well.

Yeah, thats how it works. Ever see LBJ's daughters go to Nam and be nurses or whatever? Nope. Silverspoons are a sure way not go to war.
