WINTER SOLDIER Action Alert
email

Posted on 03/10/2008 6:06:20 PM PDT by MountainFlower

This was forwarded to me from Colonel Riley, with the request to please pass the information on. Let’s do what we can to assist with this!

Subject: Winter Soldier Action Alert

Getting to Talk Radio:

Sometime this week (and possibly as early as tomorrow morning) American Thinker will simultaneously publish three articles related to Winter Soldier. There will be one each from Scott Swett and myself on WSI and media, from 1971 to 2008 respectively. I don't yet know what the other will be or who is the author, but it will be favorable to our side.

Rush Limbaugh routinely draws upon American Thinker articles for his show. The show posts a daily "pile of stuff" with links to articles that were used for that day's show preparation, and there is invariably an AT article or two on that list.

When the articles go up, there is a reasonable chance that Limbaugh will address WSI (which I won't know because I can't get the show) sometime during that day's show. My article will deal somewhat extensively with Jesse MacBeth, and Rush is well aware of that subject and was not long ago involved in the "phony soldier" issue. If he does mention any of the articles, and folks like yourselves or members of your organizations call the show to discuss that issue, it will give the subject a lift. If Limbaugh reacts to listener interest and gets into it, some of the rest of talk radio may follow suit.

If you can get some folks with the ability to listen to the show and call in and discuss WSI intelligently with some detail and conviction it could be a tremendous help to getting potentially favorable media involved.

Adam Kokesh is a phony Sergeant. The USMC decided that he demonstrated that he couldn't handle the responsibilty, so they reduced him to Corporal and then threw him out of the Corps.

Scott Swett? Any relation to draft dodging Dick Swett from New Hampshire?

Veteran PING!.
I did not serve in the military, only supported the NAM war effort and afterwards at a defense plant on war projects. So I feel a bit sheepish being on a veteran ping list.

In terms of genetics, distantly.

In terms of politics, no.

Not only that but he helped create the fantastic WinterSoldier.com website. This website should be given to everyone who needs to know the history of Winter Soldier.

In fact, I'm calling for an email FReep right now. Send that website to every TV news station and newspaper in your town to let them know the background of the Winter Soldier fraud, and that you consider the new one to be just as phony. Also tell them that journalists who are taken in by this kind of phony accusations will lose credibility this time.

Wanted...Poll takers>>>want to have some fun? It means a little work, but....Vote on the Poll on the far left side, part way down It bothers me that McCain is now using his military experience as a springboard for his candidacy! Not only does he NOT stand for the Republican Party Platform, he doesn't represent the conservative values and ethics the party once stood for.... I realize it will mean it signs you up and you have to unsubscribe, but I think they need to get the message that McCain does NOT represent the conservatives of the party.

BE CAREFUL! The poll has a HOOK in it...they never get to the point of asking your opinion of who his VP pick should be.

GM, dear.

fwiw, we GOE brothers consider you an HONORARY RVN-era vet (for your service to the USA during GOE.)

NOBODY did more to serve the cause that freezing day than you.
