Swift-Boat Response
- by: Mike Lyon

We’re all aware of the recent attacks on Rep. John P. Murtha’s (D-PA) war record. Band of Brothers has been chartered on the very principle that’s under siege here: that veterans who served this country diligently should not have their war records questioned and attacked by partisan entities through the press without a watchdog ready to bite them back when they’re out of line. Thanks to a transparently opinionated and politically motivated attack, a lot of American viewers, readers, and voters now believe that John Murtha, a man who put his life in harm’s way in defense of our country, did not get wounded enough to deserve the purple hearts he was awarded.
Help us put an end to this garbage-campaign and send the RNC a message.
Mr. Mehlman:
We ask that you and your minions please honor our veterans and that you immediately denounce and retract the recent attacks made on Rep. Murtha. We have over 50 veterans running for office in 2006 with millions of supporters and we will not allow ANY veteran to be persecuted by the Republican attack machine.
