I'm also a soldier that supports Obama. The majority of the guys in my unit also support him. I've only heard one guy say he supported McCain.

Watch and see how fast the Repukes try and not count the GI vote this time around.

I'm glad CNN obscured the picture of Ron Paul, any image of him may cause people to think!

At the time people were calling the Obama revision the Obama/Webb G.I. bill and the one McCain supported and the McCain/Gramm G.I. bill. Lindseay Gramm was there and made the changes happen. "Too bad he wasn't even there to actually VOTE on the bill and the earmark excuse is lame." He knew it would have been a waste of time, the vote was 75-22. He knew he was going to lose this one.

"He knew it would have been a waste of time, the vote was 75-22." Then those 22 senators seems to be more dedicated to their job than McCain. Hmm, could Larry Craig be one of those 22 senators? *SARCASM*.

And Obama's dedicationto his job? In Jan. 07 Obama became Chairman of the Oversight Committee for Afghanistan. Obama has been so busy campaigning for the last 18 months he has not held even one meeting as Chairman of the Oversight Committee for Afghanistan as American Soldiers are dying over there that he says he cares so much about. Oversight Committee for Afghanistan meetings by Obama, 0.

Uh Fihd, Obama is Chairman of the Senate's subcommittee on EUROPEAN AFFAIRS. Where do you get your info on Obama?

Media Matters wrote this: In a July 19 Washington Post article analyzing an ad by Sen. John McCain claiming that Sen. Barack Obama "never held a single Senate hearing on Afghanistan," media reporter Howard Kurtz wrote that the ad "is accurate in saying that Obama, who has spent most of the past two years campaigning, has not held a hearing on Afghanistan in the Senate Foreign Relations subcommittee he chairs."

Factcheck(dot)org: "Obama is the chairman of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee's 11-member Subcommittee on European Affairs. That subcommittee doesn't have direct oversight of Afghanistan"

"That subcommittee doesn't have direct oversight of Afghanistan" Well there's your explanation.
