Veterans group doesn't give John McCain 21-gun salute
Wednesday, October 8th 2008, 1:55 AM

Sen. John McCain gets a D when it comes to veterans issues, according to a new congressional report card released Tuesday by Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.

Sen. Barack Obama fares better - he earned a B.

The New York-based national veterans advocacy group graded every member of Congress on how he or she voted on major issues affecting 1.7 million vets from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
