President Obama is coming to Georgia for a list of events that include speaking to the National Convention of the Disabled American Veterans. There is buzz down here about which politicians will be seen with the president as their elections approach.
My friends and I are watching them closely because those congressional candidates who benefited from the Obama wave in 2008 should (we feel) be respectful or else.
But not a veterans event….veterans….those who bore the battle. With all the military bases we have in Georgia and the veterans who settled here, they must make that speech. With troops in the field in two theaters of war, they could find their way into that arena. This addresss will contain major policy points on medical matters.
It might not be about who was pictured with the President; it could be “where is your picture from the DAV convention.” Rep. Bishop sits on the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Military Construction, Veterans Affairs and Related Agencies so he is straight; but, I don’t see a Georgian on the House Veterans Affairs Committee. Really?
