1. 6-1.
:hi:

WASHINGTON (AFP) — US troops, stationed both abroad and in the US, have donated more money to Democrat Barack Obama than to decorated war hero Republican John McCain, a study published Thursday showed.

The study by the Center for Responsive Politics, a non-partisan research group, showed that by the end of June, Obama had received six times more from soldiers stationed abroad than Vietnam war veteran McCain, who comes from a prestigious military family.

Even McCain's former rival for the Republican nomination, Ron Paul, who opposed the Iraq war, had managed to garner more funds.

Obama had received some 60,642 dollars in donations from soldiers stationed abroad, while McCain had just 10,665 dollars, the study said.

2. I think things are going well for us and Obama.....
even with the fucked media and the White House trying so hard to give it to McCain.

Obama on Vacation after being dogged out by the media for an entire month.....
McCain whining about coverage, while he believes he is president leading a "Wag the dog" War....

and Obama is still leading.

12. I would put on my haz mat uniform and wade back in over

11. They don't..they are just so flabbergasted
at the numbers of "real" military who support Obama..by a measure of 6 to 1, that was the only thing they could come up with. Delusional to the max.
