Fox News Reporter on Fox News Report Just Made a, Shall We Say, Slip of the Tongue?
Fox News Report

Posted on 05/28/2012 4:15:58 PM PDT by murron

Reporter on Fox News Report just said that Romney has a huge lead over Obama with military veterans and that Obama has a lead over Romney with non-military veterans. What is a non-military veteran?

Veterans of a thousand psychic wars. They’ve been living on the edge so long, where the winds of limbo roar.

Non Military veterans maybe some people who refused to serve the country but want free benefits
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Exactly!!

The ‘pukes’ that went to Canada have been known to claim they should have Veteran ‘status’ because they suffered just as much trauma and had to leave their families etc.

Sadly useful idiots such as B Clinton, carried their water and remember Clinton basically referred to USN/USMC/USAF enlistees as “draft dodgers” because they picked another branch of service rather than be drafted.
Even Dick Cheney (one of my favorite people) reportedly had said he had ‘better things to do’ than go to VN.

The saddest moment was when Ford initiated the granting of amnesty to Draft Dodgers and to really spit in our eyes, todays Pols named a ship in his honor.

I can imagine if and when the D’s take complete control again the naming of ships for Clinton, Frank and Obama among other damnable people.

I don’t know but... I’m waiting to hear all about his courageous non-military career.

QUANTICO, Va. -- A Marine Corps sergeant was sentenced Wednesday to 18 months confinement and fined $25,000 for pretending to be an injured war hero to get free seats at rock concerts and professional sporting events

and then there's this guy, also an Obama supporter:

I’m no fan of Ford, but I think it was Carter who granted amnesty to the draft dodgers who went to Canada.

Couldn't it have just been meant as military-veterans vs. non military-veterans?

the new poll shows that Romney’s male advantage may be attributed to his lead among veterans, given that one in four men in the United States have served in the military. When taking into account only non-veteran men, Obama and Romney are essentially tied, the poll shows.

Among non-veterans overall (both men and women), however, Obama holds a four-percentage point advantage, 48%-44%, over his Republican rival.

Y’know, if that douche in the lower picture had stopped at 2 rows of ribbons instead of 15, he’d have been a helluva lot less suspicious.

That is what he said. I know what he meant. He meant non-veterans. He was standing outside and sweating pretty badly, so maybe the heat was just getting to him.

Ford started the ball rolling and Clinton made it one of his first signings when he took over.

If I remember correctly he brought up the idea during a debate and started pushing it, writing legislature and WJC signed it into law....probably figured between the bums and their families it would push him over the top.

If Obama has a voted edge with them they can’t be to bright.

I would consider using that term for civilian family members of the military veterans. This can’t be who he was think of because they would tend to against Obama.

"That is what he said. ?????

You WROTE "Obama has a lead over Romney with non-military veterans"

The reporter did not SPEAK with a hyphen, you decided/interpreted where to put the hyphen in your transcription.

As I replied he could have meant it as "non military-veterans."

He’s even got a “Star” device on his NATO Medal. How cute.

What a terribly bad fake that AF uniform is!

Can’t keep his fake ribbons straight or in proper order...much less his tie and hair!

A person that has been on welfare their whole life is a government, non military veteran. We have third generation vets on welfare now. "My grandpappy an my pappy dint work, an I aint a gonna either."
