And I'd suggest that stiffening the spine of Congress is pretty important to our success. I couldn't find VFF or LT Hegseth on Source Watch, but being a GOP "front organization" isn't exactly discrediting. Rick, he’s been.

Let him fight and die for his beliefs like a real soldier, instead of standing on the sidelines writing articles. BTW, Hegseth and VVF are a bit of ringer. Check out him and his organization at www.sourcewatch.org. Vets for Freedom is a completely GOP 527 front organization and has, as far as anyone can determine, very little active duty military membership (VFF won’t release a list of members, but donors and contributors are mostly republicans loyalists).

The team at Vets for Freedom have done an awesome job the past few weeks. I invite you and your readers to join us at Move America Forward as we launch our national, cross-country “Fight for Victory Tour” this September 3 - 15 ending in DC where we’ll have a rally with a collection of pro-troop groups including Vets for Freedom, Gathering of Eagles, Military Order of the Purple Heart, Free Republic, Protest Warriors and others. It’s a vital time for us to be mobilized and speaking out and it’s for such a just, worthy, noble, and pertinent cause. So let’s kick some butt and stand up to those who wish to force surrender terms upon our troops! http://www.MoveAmericaForward.org Thanks so much for blogging on Vets For Freeedom’s efforts along with these other great comments by those who understand what’s at stake if we surrender to the jihadists in Iraq.
