"As a combat veteran of two tours in Vietnam with twenty-two years of service as a Republican member of the U.S. House and Senate, I endorse President Barack Obama for a second term as our Commander-in-Chief. Candidates publicly praise our service members, veterans and their families, but President Obama supports them in word and deed, anywhere and every time.

As a Vietnam vet, one of the reasons I support President Obama is because he has consistently shown he understands that our commitment to our servicemen and women may begin when they put on their uniform, but that it must never end.

This decision is not easy for any lifelong Republican. In 2008 I voted for Barack Obama, the first time I ever voted for a Democrat, because the Republican Party was drifting toward a dangerous path that put extreme party ideology above national interest. Mitt Romney heads a party remaining on that dangerous path, proving the emptiness of their praise as they abandon our service members, veterans and military families along the way.

What really set me off was Romney's reference to 47% of Americans to be written off -- including any veteran collecting disability like myself, as a post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) veteran."
quoted from the HuffPost link

That is a real & fair estimation of the real Mitt Romney and what his plan is. Not only for veterans but the rest of the country.

Nice spin. Larry Pressler doesn't sound like a Republican any longer. What do they call 'em now? RINO's?

One of those, too. An honorable moderate Republican, definitely an endangered species.

You sure you are not one of the 47 percent Romney wrote off?

I care for Romney almost as much as I care for Obama. I think they are both assholes. I am still one of the undecided.
