Being a Iraq War Vet Sanders has gotten me VA Medical while in congress and Clinton got my fellow service men and women killed over in Iraq. So bite me.

He DID oppose Bush's illegal, immoral, unnecesssary and disastrous Iraq War. Octafish Mar 2016 #1
And thanks to his vote, influence, and capability he prevented that war from happening! Amimnoch Mar 2016 #12
