SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! Powerful Operation Truth ad now running on CNN!
Donate to them, if you can. Their ad is incredibly powerful.

http://www.optruth.org/main.cfm?actionId=globalShowStaticContent&screenKey=mediaCampaign&lnav=2

Watch our new TV ad!

From Operation Truth blog:

http://optruth.org/main.cfm?actionId=blogShowExcerpts&blogId=14&year=2004&month=10&day=13&Action=ShowCalendar&lnav=7

Watch our powerful new TV ad, "Not There" featuring Robert Acosta, an ammunition specialist who served in Iraq. 

Currently, Operation Truth has raised enough money for a very small ad buy on CNN tomorrow.  But we're hoping to reach many more people.  Our goal is to raise $200,000 to run the TV ad, enough to create a major impact nationally.

Thanks to those of you who have already donated!  It's a great start!

Also, be on the lookout for Operation Truth vets Paul Rieckhoff and Robert Acosta on CNN's "Wolf Blitzer Reports" today or tomorrow.

Note: The ad started running on CNN yesterday and was discussed by Paul Begala on CROSSFIRE.

and it is a powerful ad. BTW, this was in the Charlote, NC area. I don't have much money as I am a school teacher, but I'll make a contribution.

Just sent them $50.
