Boland for Dollars
Ray Bolands’s more interested in votes than vets

Since Ray Boland has decided to run for congress in the 3rd Congressional District, he’ll have to ask vets to open their checkbooks.

Then he’ll see how many of them really are his buddies. It’s easy to be a buddy when a guy’s handing out free drinks.

Boland doesn’t know much about politics and even less about how a political campaign is run. He needs campaign managers, aides and volunteers who know exactly how to get him elected. He has no new ideas to campaign on. The election’s in November.

But just because lobbyist Tommy G. Thompson is trying to "buy" a seat in the U.S. Senate, is no reason for Boland to think enough vets will back him all the way to Washington, D.C.

Boland wants to use vets to get votes. He has no interest in vets themselves. He wants to keep his old-age benefits and veterans to give up theirs.

Boland’s photo album posted on his campaign website is about his ego, it’s not about his qualifications or lack thereof.
