while I was underway offshore of the east coast, standing tortuous port & starboard watches catching maybe 2-4 hours sleep a day, while he partied. How dare he vote against legislation that can help veterans with long term senior care that I can use in this stage of my life.

I thinks it’s time to call and leave a voicemail and shame this little puke. From his biography, the Manchin’s seem to mimic the Romney family where none of that family served in the military either. These draft evaders seem to forget there was a lot more going on than just LBJs Vietnam mess. We were actively playing bump and grind with Krushev’s subs, and we’re terribly undermanned underway because of people like Manchin, Romney, et al.

If we can’t shame the little puke, then he is probably a lost cause to us.
