Mr. Rmoney, you didn't just forget Afghanistan...you forgot the troops!

We have men and women who went to war and fought. Many were wounded and many died.

We have walking wounded veterans, both men and women, who have devastating injuries. Some are obvious and some are hidden. Even when they come back, they continue their struggles for medical and mental care.

Their war has not ended.

Mr. Rmoney, you forgot them.

For me, as a veteran, I find it unforgivable that someone who could potentially send men and women to war, to forget them. It's unconscionable.

That is not someone who should be a commander-in-chief.
