How long before those questioning "Wounded Warrior Project" get attacked for "hating veterans" or as being unpatriotic?

One thing that made me leery of them a while back was something in their TV commercial. A brief message appears on the screen about "how you can help." Their suggestions are to "greet them at the airport" or "make others aware of their plight." That's it?
If I'm not mistaken this allows them to characterize the fundraising commercial as an educational tool. So, if they have $100M and spend $80M advertising that's already 80% going to "projects" for the injured veterans. If they spend $10M of that on actual programs it is STILL actually only 10% of what's collected but on paper it can be totaled out as 90%

Is it a coincidence that so many charities are now asking for $19.00 a month? Probably the same big-profit fundraising company for all of them. I guess it would be possible for the fundraiser to have an interest in the advertising company... but that would be speculation.
