when ms gabbard was running for her current job you couldn't turn the TV on without seeing an ad for her while she was in uniform, having people she served with touting her accomplishments while in the war zone (although it was never clear what exactly she had done) and making vague promises to support veterans. now that she has been at the job for awhile her main role seems to be vilifying hillary clinton as a hawk and making more vague promises about helping vets...she definitely either had an epiphany or was good at donning herself in a wolf's clothing. i am sure her mantra is "it's really all about me". if she ever goes by a library she should stop in and look up the word "hubris". it fits her well. sean gallagher,  combat vet, hawaii fire dept
