Wes Clark & Mike Breen for Vote Vets: "The Helicopters Never Came"
Edited on Wed May-16-07 12:30 PM by Dinger
From the Securing America website: http://www.securingamerica.com/

I thought this was worthy of mention.

" . . It was 2005 in Afghanistan. Marines were ambushed. Men were being hit. Army artillery officer Mike Breen, and his unit were holding off the enemy, but they were running out of ammunition. Breen kept calling for helicopters to re-supply us. But the helicopters never came.


Where were the helicopters?

This is the question the third and final ad of the "Generals" series by VoteVets.org asks. . . ."

" . . Following on the ads from General Batiste and General Eaton, I appear in this ad with Officer Breen to highlight the Bush administration's failed national security and foreign policy. The fact is the Iraq war hinders our ability to fight the war on terror.

Where were the helicopters?

The helicopters, the equipment, and the troops are stuck fighting George Bush's war in Iraq. As I said before the invasion, military action against Iraq would distract us from fighting those who attacked us on 9/11: Al Qaeda. George Bush and Dick Cheney constantly trumpet their capture of Saddam Hussein, but where is Osama Bin Laden? . . . "

1. It's a great ad!
These votevets.org ads have really helped expose george as the farce he is.
