"May I ask if anyone has forgotten that Mr. John Soltz is the founder of votevets.org? Has everyone forgotten that this man’s photo, of him in uniform, exists on his website? Further, He is also seen on this site making statements against this war. Therefore, it is to conclude that Mr. Soltz is guilty of blatant hypocrisy.

JON SOLTZ: Well, we are the troops. And there was nothing worse than when I was in combat in Iraq and a soldier that I sent on a convoy was killed, and I had to hear my president, the man who never had the courage to serve in Vietnam, entice my enemy with words like, “Bring it on.”

MELANIE MORGAN: Oh, please!

JON SOLTZ: So this is a very important thing. This week, VoteVets.org is launching a major massive campaign component, or not campaign, but an education of sorts, where we’re running commercials across the country. And we’re not just using Iraq war veterans. We’re having General Batiste, the commander of the First Infantry Division in Iraq.
