Clinton’s Supporters Honor Their Fellow Veterans At Parades And Ceremonies Across The Country
Hillary Clinton for President ^ | 11/12/2007 | Hillary Clinton for President

Posted on 11/12/2007 5:33:20 PM PST by mdittmar

Throughout the weekend, members of the Clinton campaign’s Veterans and Military Retirees Steering Committee represented Hillary at events around the country. From Arkansas to Washington, committee members honored their fellow veterans by participating in Veterans Day parades, ceremonies and other grass-roots activities. In addition, the campaign continued announcing prominent veterans as members of the National Veterans and Military Retirees Steering Committee. Yesterday, the campaign announced 36 new national co-chairs to its steering committee and unveiled a new video featuring a cross-generation of veterans discussing their support of Hillary Clinton for President. There are more that 1,200 veterans and military retirees who have joined Hillary Clinton's national and state veterans' steering committees.

"I am honored to have the support of our men and women who have served our nation with distinction," said Clinton. "Our veterans have been on the frontlines of defending our democracy, and as President, I will fulfill our commitment to them."

Below is an overview of the activity taking place in various states:

If J.F. Kerry can have his vet contingent so can Hilary.

And who’s this General Jack Yeager?

I'll wait until she says she will make SURE Veteran's votes AND MILITARY ABSENTEE BALLOTS are counted in 2008.

I won't hold my breath on the Absentee Ballots from the Military, however, as the Dem's put lawyers and ACORN in place to assure challenges to military ballots....

The description of their activites is a little vague. Yes they “attended” and “joined” parades and whatnot but what did they do? Burn flags? Burn President Bush in effigy? Hold up placards calling our troops murderers?

At the Veteran’s cemetery where my husband is buried, the Veteran’s Affairs man had a “I miss Bill” sticker on his car today. He was there for the ceremonies.

How disgusting!

We all remember how Chelsea refered to the Generals in the White House and who she got it from. Hillary’s troops fanning out to show the respect she never has, is disgusting.

“In Iowa and New Hampshire this week, the campaign will announce an extensive list of veterans who support Hillary for President.”

I want names and numbers..extensive, whatever.

Truly disgusting. He loathed the military and showed it everyday. They did not want military personnel wearing their uniforms in the White House. They used officers to serve snacks. They both have utter disdain for the warriors who serve our country.

Trust me, she doesn’t.

In my experience, I think the only American hated more within the US military is Jane Fonda (for obvious reasons).

The only thing on General Jack Yeager that I could find (other than being a Hillary supporter) is that he was a Kerry supporter, too. No bio on Google.

Fonda was/is a stupid and ignorant woman, who has gotten through life based on good looks and family connections plus a willing ness to go to bed with Directors to achieve her goals.

Hillary is far more scary because if anyone thinks she is stupid is greatly underestimating her and she sure is not getting by on her looks.

Are all her vet supporters of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” persuasion? Just wondering.

Scumbags have only used the military on suicidal missions and to serve tea at the White House. Such sick people.
