Gen. Batiste's NEW VoteVets ad to follow GOP debate on Fox tonight
Edited on Tue May-15-07 01:04 PM by WesDem
From a VoteVets email today:

Today, we're taking our message to the belly of the beast.

Tonight, because of your donations, following the debate on FOX News, we'll be airing our ad with General Batiste, targeting Senator John McCain.

Why Senator McCain? No one in the Senate has been as vociferous a defender of the President's failed strategy in Iraq as Senator McCain. For whatever the reason, the wheels seem to have come off the 'Straight-Talk Express.' From bizarrely maintaining that an American can stroll through Baghdad unprotected to dangerously advocating more of the same, this isn't the same Senator McCain that people so respected years ago.

We're trying to give him a dose of reality - those who were commanders on the ground are saying we need to change course, so we can maintain a strong military and defend America. By putting those voices in front of his face, and in front of an audience he cares about, maybe he'll finally begin to put America's security above politics. He has a chance to rise to the occasion and be a true leader, if he wants to.


Here is the Batiste ad which will show tonight on Fox.

Gen. Batiste, in case you didn't know, is a Republican, so his ad will hit home for sure!

Here is the latest ad that came out yesterday with retired Major General Paul Eaton:

The third ad in the series will feature General Clark.

VoteVets is raising money to continue the ads nation-wide in targeted Republican districts, so if you have a few spare bucks:
