This Is Damaging
The Democrats absolutely have a major problem understanding the military. They also have a major problem in being gullible about hearing what they want to hear, at least in this one case. Gateway Pundit is all over this one, as is a Kansas City television station. It seems the McCaskill campaign aired a campaign ad that features an Iraq war veteran telling a woeful tale of neglect.
Which appears to be totally and completely false.
I am not going to excerpt it, it needs to be read, including following the links to his past posts on this. McCaskill has virtually no chance whatsoever of getting the vote of any military family, veteran or active duty military after this. Is this enough to undo her? I have no idea. But it is very damaging and comes at a disastrous time.

Why does the far-left bend over backwards to tarnish the image of our military? I can’t imagine great democrats such as FDR and John F. Kennedy allowing the military to be denigrated like these modern day democrats are allowing. What happened to the proud democratic party? Did the anti-war left finally take it over during the Johnson, Nixon and Carter years?
