Rave if you think Republican Rep. Joe Walsh of Illinois was WRONG for suggesting double-amputee Iraq veteran Tammy Duckworth not a ‘true hero’
Republican Rep. Joe Walsh of Illinois is under fire this Fourth of July for complaining that his Democratic challenger, a veteran who lost her legs in Iraq, talks too much about her military service.
Tammy Duckworth, a Black Hawk pilot, was awarded the Purple Heart after her helicopter was hit by an RPG in 2004. She lost her legs and some use of her right arm in the explosion.
At a town hall meeting on Sunday, Walsh complained that he is “running against a woman who, I mean my God, [military service] is all she talks about.”
The first-term congressman also suggested that Duckworth is not a “true hero,” while comparing her unfavorably to Arizona Sen. John McCain.

Barak Obama has done more for Vets than you care to know. . President Barack Obama signed a bill significantly boosting federal support for disabled military veterans and their caregivers. Among other things, the new law expands resources available for veterans' mental health counseling, provides expanded access to hospitals and clinics outside of the traditional Veterans Affairs system and provides stronger transportation and housing assistance for veterans living in rural areas.
Obama passed legislation to improve care and slash red tape for our wounded warriors recovering at places like Walter Reed. He passed laws to help homeless veterans and offered an innovative solution to prevent at-risk veterans from falling into homelessness.
Obama led a bipartisanto try to halt the military's unfair practice of discharging for having a service-connect psychological problems.

Was it republicans that went to Hanoi and aided the enemy while American GI's were tortured in North Vietnamese prison camps?
Was it republicans that lead the anti-war movement while George W Bush was in office; the same anti war protestors that have suspiciously gone silent when their pro baby killing, pro sodomite Kenyan born Marxist President continued the military presence in the Middle East?
Save your liberal song and dance for someone that doesn't know any better.
