I had to go with the Silver Star and Purple Heart recipient from Texas

"SGT John Wayne Walding has his leg nearly severed by single shot. Walding applied a tourniquet to his leg, autoinjection of morphine and folded his mangled leg upward into his crotch and tied two bootlaces to his belt in order to retain his ability to move and shoot."

That's great, but you get that you just cancelled out a vote for one of our Arkansas' brothas.  Not cool.

Our Arkansas Boy not only saved lives that day but come up with something that will save more lives in the future.

It was a gut decision

Who knows, maybe my vote will create some wild domino effect that culminates in Vladimir Putin choking on a chicken wing

That's fine, but why jump on a thread meant to help a Hogvillian's war veteran friend and then announce, nah, I think I'll vote for the other guy instead?

Why not?   The other guy seemed like he deserves it a wee bit more.  Anyone that serves is willing to die for their country, the guy that performs SABC on himself so that he can continue to fight gets a little extra in my book.

I understand your reason for voting for him, you don't have to keep repeating it.   
You made your point.
