the majority of people in the military who made campaign contributions gave to Obama. So I think you're full of it, but don't let me stop you. :eyes: Yes, I get it you don't like Obama, but I won't give you a pass in spewing shit that isn't true. If it is, back it up.

It had a certain political salience — opponents of the war in Iraq took note of the fact that the top two recipients of military donations went to critics of the Bush policy — but it was still relatively early in the process.

The Center for Responsive Politics reported today that Obama has received six times as much money from the troops as John McCain.
