PolitiFact Texas | Ron Paul says members of military have given him far more money than other GOP candidates and Barack Obama
From the Link; Bottom of page.
After we conducted this rough check, Paul’s campaign spokesman, Gary Howard, said by email that their numbers showed that Paul garnered $34,480 from members of the military; other GOP candidates fielded $13,848 and Obama took in $19,849.

Summing up, Paul’s military-connected contributions for the three months more than double such contributions to all the other Republican presidential candidates—and they also exceed Obama’s.

We rate his statement True.

We are, some people like to think that and "To the Republic for which we Stand"

is just hogwash... it ain't.

Democracy is a blink away from Socialism, so those that like socialism, like to say we are a Democracy.

Anyone that has ever studied our electoral college system would know otherwise.

The sheeple don't elect the elite. The elite select for the sheeple.

I don't think polls are the right venue, i think they have to actually report these things.

You think that Obama would let this stand if it wasn't true?

He'd be all huggy kissy with the troops.

They boo his Ass....


Your turn. I put up 2 examples.

Sigh, see the multiple other deflections along these lines. the military is subservient to the civilian authority.
