If Bush means what he says about listening to the military, a series of ads featuring retired generals should produce critical mass on Iraq. Brought to us by Vote Vets, the first spot features former Iraq commander Maj. Gen. John Batiste.
Our ads are airing in states and districts of those Members of Congress who are very close to breaking with the President on Iraq, and joining the troops and American people…Mentioning them by name at the end, the local spots will call on them to “Protect America, Not George Bush.”
Batiste comes right out and says he left the armed forces in protest over Bush putting service members at risk for a failed strategy.
Following is a list of the elected officials the ads are aimed at. If one of them belongs to you, remember that nothing makes an impression on a public servant like a call from the folks back home.
They are:
Sen. Susan Collins, Maine Sen. John Sununu, N.H.Sen. John Warner, Virg. Sen. Norm Coleman, Minn. Rep, Mary Bono, Palm Springs, Calif.Rep. Phil English, Erie, Penn.Rep. John “Randy” Kuhl, Bath, N.Y.Rep. Jim Walsh, Syracuse, N.Y.Rep. Heather Wilson, Santa Fe, N.M.Rep. Jo Ann Emerson, Springfield, Mo.Rep. Tim Johnson, Urbana, Ill.Rep. Mike Rogers, Brighton, Mich.Rep. Fred Upton, Kalamazoo, Mich.Rep. Mike Castle, Wilmington, Del.
Future ads will feature Maj. Gen. Paul Eaton and our personal favorite, Gen. Wesley Clark.
Pony up some bucks, if you can, so the spots can be run nationwide.
