In fact today more Democratic members of Congress have served in the military than Republicans. And last today both houses of the US Congress are controlled by the "patriotic" Republicans. Want to guess how many members of that Congress today have a son/daughter or grandson/granddaughter in the US military during what they claim is a time of war just like WW2.
Answer: 14

Yeah, Jack, that is interesting. I knew that already but it's always good to refresh one's memory. 14 Congressmen with a son or grandson serving is a high average. Higher than the rest of the country.
