What were they thinking?

In examining recent roll call votes of some of our elected officials, you really wonder how they can make certain claims about themselves.


Republican Rep. Bob Latta (OH-5th) may claim to support veterans, but a recent "NO" vote in the House of Representatives, should make us question his backing of our vets.  Latta voted "NO" on HR5993: Roll Call Vote 552 (Securing America's Veterans Insurance Needs and Goals Act of 2010). Should we assume Latta doesn't really support our military veterans?

In another vote for HR 5297: Roll Call Vote 539 (Small Business Lending Fund Act of 2010) Ohio Republicans Austria, Boehner, Jordan, LaTourette, Latta, Schmidt, Tiberi, and Turner, all voted "NO" for a bill that helps small businesses.  I guess, these Ohio Republicans don't really want to help small businesses.

Boehner, Jordan, and Latta even voted against a bill called HR 4380:Roll Call Vote 456 (United State Manufacturing Enhancement Act of 2010) because I guess they don't want to help American manufacturers!!!!


Will you be going to see John Boehner campaign with the Nazi SS imitator, Rich Iott?  According to the Huffington Post, Boehner and SS-lover Iott, will be at the Lucas County Republican Headquarters.  If you go, please take plenty of pictures (and post them on the web) because we need to see Boehner supporting a Nazi-loving candidate like Iott. (See picture from The Atlantic.) 

Our military fought against the Nazis and many were killed, were wounded, or taken as POWs.  Every veteran should be insulted by Iott's "hobby" that glorifies a group that did so much damage and cost so many lives.
