President Barack Obama has added military heroes to his enemies list, singling out veterans groups such as Special Operations for America and Veterans for a Strong America on his campaign website, much as he singled out donors to Republican rival Mitt Romney for attack. Several veterans groups have spoken out against the Obama administrations habit of taking credit for the Osama bin Laden raid and leaking military secrets for political gain--so the Obama campaign is trying to shoot the messenger.
The charge made by the Obama campaign is that the veterans groups are Swift Boat 2.0--referring to the group that launched a series of ads (never refuted) in 2008 contesting claims by then-Democrat presidential candidate John Kerry about his war record.

The president's team is more serious about labeling a group of veterans as swift boaters than they are about going after the leakers in his administration.

And instead of appointing a special prosecutor - this President dispatches his campaign team to smear a group of vets looking out for their buddies in uniform. It just shows the lack of seriousness on the part of this administration.
If they want to call us swift boaters because we are looking out for our buddies on the battlefield that's fine with me - we'll take the political body blows for our comrades in order to ensure that the American people fully understand our position on the issue and see the administration's intransigence on this issue.
Obama is overflowing with the unholy spirits of hate, lies and death.
Finally! The transparency he promised.

Obama doesn't understand our traditions. One of which is we give up power peacefully...

When you're consolidating power as a DICTATOR, you have to remove Patriots that will uphold The Constitution.
