Oh, really?

When it seems that everybody, including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, are signing onto legislation that would help out our hard working military, one would think the man being the most vocal about supporting the troops would be leading the charge.

But nope. Rat-bastard, John McCain, can’t even be found!

It would seem like a no-brainer for any presidential candidate: a bill, introduced by two veterans, with the support of veterans associations around the country, that increases the opportunity for vets to go to college.

Both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have co’sponsored a bill put forth last fall by Jim Webb of Virginia and Chuck Hagel, Republican from Nebraska, called the “Post-9/11 Veterans’ Educational Act,” that is a return to the spirit of the World War II GI Bill, with enough funding such that every returning veteran is guaranteed a quality education. [...]

So where’s McCain on this, who has made “support the troops” his campaign mantra? When asked in March by a representative of Student Veterans of America why he wouldn’t co’sponsor the bill, McCain wavered and mumbled, saying, “Uh, I haven’t had the chance to examine the bill.” Several weeks later, it seems he still hasn’t had a chance to, and needless to say, many aren’t happy.
