Veterans dumping Obama.

It's a mystery to me how anyone, let alone a veteran, can support a hopelessly clueless moron who has done more to damage the military then anyone since Jimmy Carter. (Not counting the idiocy of DADT from Clinton)

Veterans know.  And it's pretty clear that veterans are wising up. (Politico)

President Barack Obama is trying hard to win veterans, but it looks like they’d prefer a new commander in chief.

The Obama campaign had been hoping that veterans and their families — especially among the post-Sept. 11 generation that served in Iraq and Afghanistan — would be part of their path to victory: They’re a high turn-out demographic and concentrated in battleground states, with nearly 1 million each in North Carolina, Ohio and Virginia, and 1.6 million in Florida.

But recent polls make clear that the president’s campaign is losing the battle. Even as Obama leads in Colorado, Florida, Ohio and Virginia, Mitt Romney is up by double digits among veterans in those states. Nationwide, he’s got a commanding 20-percentage-point lead over Obama and has even overtaken the president with younger veterans.

“It’s no contest,” said Maurice Tamman, a Reuters data news editor who has polled on veterans and the presidential campaign.

Obama’s campaign has been trying to improve on a historical Democratic disadvantage on national security and among veterans by touting the killing of Osama bin Laden, ending Iraq combat operations and winding down the war in Afghanistan. They’ve also been talking up the administration’s attention to veterans’ benefits and efforts spearheaded by first lady Michelle Obama, hoping to appeal not just to the troops but to the spouses and other military family members who have coped with long separations and multiple deployments.

We get it.  We get that Obama despises the military in action and deed.  We get that he doesn't give a damn about Veterans, his spin to the contrary.

I, for example, am really quite mystified as to why I have to pay almost 3 times as much for many of my medications at the VA as I do at Fred Meyers, or Walgreens or WalMart or Costco.

I don't get why the drugs i need cost MORE at the Veterans Administration than they do for any non-serving pogue at WalMart.

Yeah.  He's taking great care of us.

And the Vets are starting to know it.

Expect this trend to strengthen as more wise up.
