After watching John McCain in the first presidential debate pander about how much he cared about veterans, I found his statements so disingenuous I decided to put together this video highlighting the hypocrisy of his words.
The references cited in the video are detailed below:
McCain voted against increasing the amount available for medical care for veterans by $650 million. (8/1/2001)
McCain voted against establishing a VA reserve fund to treat veterans. (3/10/2004)
McCain voted against increasing VA medical services funding. (3/14/2006)
McCain was one of 13 Republicans to vote against $430 million for VA outpatient care and facilities. (4/26/2006)
It’s my first campaign-style video, so please be kind. I’ve also got one on Sara Palin in the works I hope to post soon.
