WaPo's The Trail: Vote Vets running new Anti-McCain spot in Virginia (It's great!)
New Anti-McCain Spot Appeals to Veterans

By Matthew Mosk

The group VoteVets is launching a toughly worded, $1.3 million ad campaign today, largely targeting veterans in Virginia.

The television spots that will appear in several Virginia television markets feature an Iraq war veteran, standing in front of his pickup truck, expressing disdain for what he says was Sen. John McCain's decision to attend a campaign fundraiser instead of casting a vote for the GI Bill.

In addition to the television ad campaign in Virginia, the group is launching $40,000 in radio ads in New Mexico focused on McCain and votes on veterans funding. And it is spending $200,000 in North Carolina for a television ad that attacks Sen. Elizabeth Dole (R-N.C.) for failing to provide troops better body armor.

2. I highly recommend that site. I'm going to refer some chest-thumping,
chickenhawks to see that what they're fed is bullshit, coming from those who KNOW.

Everyone I know thinks EVERYONE in the military is republican AND agree with Bush.

Thanks to chickenhawks like Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Reilly. Actually, have ANY of those types served?

I'm going to look into that now....
