(http://www.americansunitedforchange.org/page/m/1baf370d/1ddd0ab7/a14622c/56aa6794/1785068519/VEsE/) No  matter how you feel about the war in 
Afghanistan or Iraq, some things are just  plain wrong; like trying to keep our 
soldiers from getting the equipment they  need to stay alive, and blocking 
funding for health care for service members  and their families.

But the Republicans has never let right and wrong  get in the way of a good 
obstructionist tactic.

With funding for the  Department of Defense set to run out at midnight last 
Saturday, 33 Senate  Republicans - including Sen. John "Country First" 
McCain - voted to block the  fiscal 2010 Defense spending bill as part of their 
party's irresponsible  crusade to delay and derail health insurance reform 
at any cost. 

_Watch our  newest video and write Senator John McCain and ask him what 
happened to his  pledge to keep "country first?" _

Fortunately, the troops will  get the funding eventually when the 
appropriations bill eventually passed over  Republican objections.

It is truly a sad thing to see a party so  committed to protecting health 
insurance industry profits that they are  willing to withhold funding and a 
pay raise from our troops to do it.   Senator John McCain, in particular, 
ought to change the name of his political  action committee from "Country 
First" to "Politics First."

_Join us in  sending a message directly to John McCain asking him, what 
happened to putting  country first?_
