(32,084 posts)It wouldn't surprise me if the VFW halls are where Gallup sampled their veterans. These are the same guys who brainwashed my uncle. He's a Vietnam vet, and was raised a Democrat. Several years after he got back, he started hanging out in the VFW hall. Next thing you know, we're all getting the BS anti-Clinton e-mail that was so prevalent back in the 1990s. When he would go to visit my parents (he's Mom's brother), he would spew right-wing bullshit--up until my parents had enough of it and let him have it. He learned not to open his mouth about politics around them. My grandpa would be spinning in his grave if he knew his kid turned into a wing nut. I haven't spoken to him since I asked him to quit sending the anti-Clinton shit, and he got into a snit over it. Oh well. His loss, not mine.
