There are currently 14 democratic senators that are veterans and 18 republicans with one independent. One of the dems is Zell Miller so I guess that makes 19 republicansWhats funny about the entire thing is about 20 years ago military-turned-politicians were almost always Republicans, whereas now we would be lucky to need both hands to count the number of veterans in the congress![]()
There are 121 members of the House that are veterans. You must have some big hands.

I stand corrected then, but when I'm talking about decades ago I meant more along the lines of veterans of wars, not just people who pulled 4 years in the guard. I'm not saying thats what these current vets did, because I don't know, nor am i saying they are posers for their service, but when I think vets in the congress i think of Bob Doles and so forth. I did 4 years in the guard right out of high school and it was a very uneventful, peacetime enlistment, so I don't exactly feel proper calling myslef a "veteran." By prospective-employer definition someone who enlists, breaks their knee 2 weeks out of AIT and gets a medical discharge is considered a "disabled veteran." Not sure what the legal definition is.
