Just in case you happened to see the ABC News piece (if you watch ABC News) with interviews of 5 military folks in Iraq – 3 planned to vote for Obama and 2 for Hillary; no mention of any McCain supporters. Well, here’s the ‘Rest of the Story.’
This from Major General (ret) Buckman
My niece, Katelyn, stationed at Baluud, Iraq was assigned, with others of her detachment, to be escort/guard/ watcher for Martha Raddatz of ABC News as she covered
John McCain’s recent trip to Iraq.
Katelyn and her Captain stood directly behind Raddatz as she queried GI’s walking past. They kept count of the GI’s and you should remember these numbers. She asked 60 GI’s who they planned to vote for in November. 54 said John McCain, 4 for Obama and 2
for Hillary.
for Hillary.
Katelyn called home and told her Mom and Dad to watch ABC news the next night because she was standing directly behind Raddatz and maybe they’d see her on TV. Mom and Dad of course, called and emailed all the kinfolk to watch the newscast and maybe see Katelyn.
Well, of course, we all watched and what we saw wasn’t a glimpse of Katelyn, but got a hell’uva view of skewed news. After a dissertation on McCain’s trip and speech, ABC showed 5 GI’s being asked by Raddatz how they were going to vote in November; 3 for
Obama and 2 for Clinton . No mention of the 54 for McCain.

I am very concerned with emails that try to intimidate one into sending emails on. Truth isn’t considered necessary.
I do feel that the media isn’t interested in truth through experience. The media tries to sway with their spin what they feel is a better story or what they want accomplished.
I, for one, am waiting for validation before I participate in this or any other forwards. It is the truth that sets one free. Let’s apply that toward our nation also.
If this turns out to be factual I will then forward it as a tool to expose the media with truth.
Free speech means speak in what we know is truth; otherwise, it may be liable.
Please notify me if you find this is true.
