Does Melissa Gilbert stand with soldiers or with Obama?

Now that President Obama is playing politics by threatening to veto the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), where is Melissa Gilbert’s outrage?  Did she leave it back home in California?  The NDAA, which authorizes funding for the Armed Forces, overwhelmingly passed the House by a vote of 270 to 156 and the Senate by a vote of 70 to 27.

Is Melissa Gilbert so blindly partisan that she won’t stand up to Barack Obama’s veto threat that holds the paychecks of our military men and women hostage?  Some issues are more important than politics, and hopefully Gilbert agrees this is one of them.

NRCC Comment:  “Melissa Gilbert knows a thing or two about not paying her bills, so you would think she would be sympathetic to the military families in Michigan’s 8^th District who unlike her actually want to pay theirs.  Hopefully Melissa Gilbert musters up the courage to tell President Obama to back off his threat to veto a bipartisan bill that authorizes funding for our soldiers’ paychecks.” –NRCC Spokesman Chris Pack
