Sen. Jim Webb sponsored and then pushed through a new GI Bill that John McCain opposed, and then missed votes on. His rationale for opposing the GI Bill? If our military personnel had the opportunity to go to college they would not stay in the military. That's politico-speak for, "We can't get people to sign up for President Bush's Blundering Wars Project, so we don't want to give the soldiers we have incentives to leave ..."
Watch McCain dodge his record, and refuse to answer for other votes (on veteran's health care) in this clip ...
One other point. It seems that his hand-picked audience were more than happy to clap for McCain when he stumbled through and then dodged, rather than answer, the questions. Pathetic.
Do the principles of democracy and accountability mean anything to these people?
