More on Sen. Craig's staff being rude to the Vote Vets guys
Hat tip to McJoan on DailyKos. This is from the local press in Idaho:

http://www.idahopress.com/articles/2007/02/07/news/news6.txt

Army Reserve Capt. Jon Soltz, 29, and former 101st Airborne Division Sgt. Joe Kramer, 31, say Chief of Staff Mike Ware raised his voice or yelled at them and pointed at them during a scheduled meeting in Craig’s office.

...

“It’s probably the most unprofessional thing I’ve ever heard from a chief of staff of a U.S. senator,” Soltz said. “I told him it was rather unprofessional to yell at a soldier who fought for our country.”

...

But Soltz said he ended the meeting when things got hot. Kramer said Ware shook his finger at the veterans and he and Ware raised their voices at each other.

“He got pretty loud and I got emotional,” Kramer said. “It really kind of blew me away.”


This is outrageous. Republicans dissing the troops.

one of the liberal blog sites.
