Fighting to Elect and Protect our Veterans

Below please find a special message from one of our advertisers, Veterans for Freedom. From time to time, we receive opportunities we believe you as a valued customer may want to know about. Please note that the following message does not necessarily reflect the editorial positions of Human Events.

As we all recently celebrated the 232nd birthday of this great nation, we as veterans have a duty and solemn responsibility to honor all of those who have worn or are currently wearing the uniform of the United States of America. Among the millions who share this common bond, 31 Presidents have had the honor and privilege of serving in our Armed Forces. Today, as sacred guardians of our constitution, we are shocked that United States Senators and trusted loyal advisors to presidential candidates think that being a veteran and fighting for America is NOT a qualification to be President. If service to one's country in armed combat is not a qualification to be Commander in Chief, what is? For several months now we have observed the irresponsible judgment of some of Senator Obama's most trusted and loyal advisors as they have unfairly attacked the notion that a veteran is not qualified to serve as President. Here are several examples of this poor judgment by Obama's supporters and advisors: "I don't think riding in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to be President." - General Wesley Clark, Obama Advisor and Surrogate, June 29, 2008. "... I think that the notion that the members of the Senate who were in the ground forces or who were ashore in Vietnam have a very different view of Vietnam and the cost that you described than John McCain does because he was in isolation essentially for many of those year…So I think ... to some extent his national security experience in that regard is sadly limited.…" - Rand Beers, Obama Foreign Policy Advisor, June 30, 2008. "Everything is looked at from his life experiences, from always having been in the military, and I think that can be pretty dangerous...it's one thing to have been drafted and served, but another thing when you come from generations of military people and that's just how you're steeped, how you've learned, how you've grown up." - Senator Tom Harkin, May 16, 2008. "McCain should calm down"..."on using military service"... - Senator Jim Webb, Obama Supporter, July 1, 2008. Please donate today. We need the support of Americans like you to help us fight against this blatant bias against veterans Vets for Freedom PAC has endorsed several candidates running for the United States Congress or Senate, most who have worn the uniform, all who strongly believe in the mission of our organization, as well as our nation's efforts in Iraq, Afghanistan and the Global War on Terror and we need your help to make sure they are elected. All of these men have either worn the uniform or understand what is at stake in the Global War on Terrorism, and will fight for victory if elected to Congress. You can see the full list of supported candidates on the Vets for Freedom PAC website. Please visit the Vets for Freedom PAC website, and help us elect these candidates and others like them. Vets for Freedom PAC, or VFFPAC is a Political Action Committee whose mission is to help candidates-mostly combat veterans-who believe in achieving success in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the overall War on Terrorism, get elected to the United States Congress and other Federal positions. Established by combat veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan on November 11, 2007, Veterans Day, VFFPAC will endorse and offer extended support through financial contributions and media assistance to federal candidates who support victory in the Global War on Terrorism.
