He also voted for Susan Collins "every chance that he got" (3x) because she was good for Maine along with the Republicans.
What a loser.
"would later be deployed" is some truly NYT-esque language to describe this, don't you think?
What's w/ the passive voice of "would be deployed"? It's not like he was drafted, he actively chose to not just enlist, but serve multiple tours. If he had a problem w/ the war, it obviously wasn't for long
Damn! The DNC + AIPAC trolls are now blasting him for enlisting in the military?
I will never get this guy
Bangor Daily News noted in 2002 that Graham Platner was kicked out of a Bush rally in Bangor for protesting the forthcoming Iraq War by yelling, "Don't attack Iraq," as he thanked grassroots activists. Found that moment during Bush's speech where you can audibly hear it.
