The article has bad numbers..
I suspect their "nonveterans" % is also skewed.. :mad:
Correction: OF THOSE POLED,, but we are still only 7% of the total population...
These data, from an analysis of Gallup Daily tracking interviews conducted April 11-May 24, show that 24% of all adult men are veterans, compared with 2% of adult women.

Well that Poll goes against the MSM spin last week saying the Military and Veterans were for Obama...........
Years ago I read that 80% +/- of Veterans voted. I hope the Vets get out the Vote and get this Ass Clown out of office.
