McCain doesn’t support troops

I opened up the Alligator on Wednesday to find an awful rant by Andrew Fells. I would like to set him straight. First, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's bubble has just burst. Maybe it has something to do with her personal tanning booth or her cutting funding for Alaska's Special Olympics.

Although it's nice to say Sen. John McCain has always stood by the troops, maybe you should check his record before making those claims. He voted against the GI Bill, increased funding for veterans' health care, funding a trust fund for military health facilities and funding for counseling services for veterans with mental disorders.

Good going, almost as good as how he apparently invented the BlackBerry.
