On August 4 I posted about the Moderator at a Kos Conference that not only snuffed an American Soldier’s comments on the Troop Surge, but also exploded with hostility toward the Soldier and demanded a Kos panelist to “stand down” that was going to respond to the Soldier. Then in a huff unceremoniously stated the Panel discussion was terminated and stomped off the stage. That is the memory jogger.
The link to the video (that link must be fast forwarded to the 40 minute mark) I had only showed the Moderator – Jon Soltz – expressing his hostility to the Sergeant.
Courtesy of Pajamas Media, a news reporter covers the end of the Panel discussion from the audience perspective. He captures Soltz’s rude anger and the voice of the Sergeant. The Pajamas Media reporter then attempts an interview with Soltz – that did not go so well. Then the reporter interviews the Sergeant and of course he was very forth coming. The Sergeant’s interview reveals that Soltz in a private room threatened to have the Sergeant dishonorably discharged for wearing his uniform at a political function. Apparently it is illegal to wear military uniforms at public forums except under certain guidelines.
You and I both know that Soltz – a former soldier currently involved with Leftist moveon.org and votevets.org – did not want to hear any positive information from an American Soldier the contradicted the Left Wing view of the Troop Surge.
Here is the Pajamas Media link to the Kos conference I described.
Here is a YouTube video of a debate between Jon Soltz and MoveAmericaForward Chairman Melanie Morgan. After you watch this video you can understand why Soltz was hostile toward the Sergeant. Soltz contends that his votevets.org is the primary organization in America representing veterans of the wars being fought by American Troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. That of course is hogwash and thus the origin of the hostility from an American Soldier confronting Soltz in a public forum at a Kos conference.
Melanie Morgan in the August 8 MoveAmericaForward e-newsletter says this about Jon Soltz:
Jon Soltz has become one of the leading anti-war spokespersons for the "surrender" movement that is trying to force our troops to declare "defeat" in Iraq and surrender the nation to al-Qaida.
He puts a "military" face on the surrender/defeat/retreat message of the anti-war movement, but make no mistake - he is actively working to undermine support for the missions of our troops at a time of war. His conduct is shameful, and we should all be aware of what we're up against. We need to be prepared to fight back here on the home front to ensure our troops that they have the support they need to finish their missions and achieve VICTORY.
Soltz is a classic Lefty claiming to represent the hearts and the minds of the American citizens and troops he purports to be the “leading voice” for (votevets.org). Soltz’s claims are propaganda taking advantage of polls that ask skewed questions that provide a skewed answer. On the other side of the political spectrum there are organizations that lay to the same claim and are more legitimate because a significant amount of there funding is grass roots as opposed to Anti-American Leftist George Soros (the major billionaire donor to moveon.org and votevets.org). MoveAmericaForward and VetsForFreedom represent the grassroots people that comprehend the threat of Islamism to Western Civilization.
Soltz is a representation of the Left that will do all it can to snuff the voice of the Right to prevent Americans from making informed decisions based on finding a middle ground. Leftists only want you to see the Left side of the field. Often times the Left side is sugar coated with utopian promises that cannot be kept because they are delusional or impossible. Think of that in November 2008.
Everybody wants a buck for their cause and there just may not be enough bucks to support every pet project you give mental assent. Squeeze some bucks for this worthy cause.

Iraq Poll Numbers Improve!

I'm sure you've all heard the news accounts that Senate leader Harry Reid says the mission of our troops in Operation Iraqi Freedom has failed and that America has "LOST."
Senator Harry Reid has once again waved the white flag of surrender in the war on terrorism.
Now just stop and think - if you were an Islamic jihadist who was active in, or supportive of, the war against the "infidels" in the West, how would you feel.
Don't you think that these kinds of comments and actions by the likes of Senator Reid embolden our terrorist enemies? Don't you think that this sends a message to the terrorists that the way to defeat America is by resorting to more violence and more attacks, knowing that they can outlast the weak resolve of American politicians like Harry Reid?
If you are as disappointed and disgusted with Senator Harry Reid as I am, and if you want to help Move America Forward fight back in the battle for support of our troops that is playing out here at home, then please, I urge you to make a financial contribution to Move America Forward right now.
When we hear defeatist comments made by people like Senator Harry Reid, our response is to redouble our efforts and fight back even stronger.
Please, support our efforts including our current national pro-troop ad campaign. Give as generous of a contribution as you can (it's tax deductible) - $500, $1,000, $5,000 or more:

Melanie Morgan has been in the forefront of promoting “These Colors Don’t Run,” which was a pro-Patriotism caravan sponsored preeminently by MoveAmericaForward.
Here is Melanie’s report on “These Colors Don’t Run.” A function incidentally that most Mainstream Media rarely covered and was threatened with disruption by the anti-war Left Wing hypocrites in America. The caravan ended in Washington, D.C. and had thousands more supporters than the Leftie crowd: A humiliation for the cut-n-runners.
Yes you are correct; I am on the Move America Forward e-mail list.

..Major Announcement..

We have some exceptional news to report - read on for details...
As you already know, Move America Forward is about to launch a major advertising campaign to rally support for our troops in Iraq. We've told you for several weeks now that we were working to put together a grassroots component to support this effort - and now we have a major announcement to make.
We have learned that anti-war protestors have been desecrating war memorials and now in some isolated instances publicly denouncing/insulting returning Iraqi war veterans. On Saturday, March 17th, Cindy Sheehan, Jane Fonda and Ramsey Clark will lead a giant anti-war protest in Washington, D.C. - disgracing the war memorials there as they march to the Pentagon. A massive anti-war crowd is expected - March 17th is after all the 4th anniversary of the commencement of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Move America Forward [
http://www.MoveAmericaForward.org ] is proud to announce that we will be fighting back against all this negativity and disrespect towards our troops with a positive and patriotic national effort titled: "THESE COLORS DON'T RUN".
MAF will lead a national caravan of vehicles and supporters from California across the nation to Washington, D.C. Heading up the caravan will be Gold Star Parents who lost a child in the war on terrorism, Blue Star Parents who have a son/daughter serving in the war effort, or veterans of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom.
We are putting out the word to all Americans to join us for this national show of support for our troops - and at each stop along the way conducting a patriotic pro-troop rally where we will be collecting American flags from rally participants.
We are putting out the call for children in schools to make homemade flags to be brought to these rallies. We are asking for those who are good at knitting or sewing to make homemade flags. We are asking families to bring a flag that has sentimental value or a patriotic story behind it to these rallies. Or simply buy a flag, bring it to the rally so we can add it to the collection of flags heading for the big Washington, D.C. event!
At each rally we will collect the flags and pack them in the trucks in our caravan and then bring them to Washington, D.C. where we will surround these war memorials in a giant sea of red, white and blue - and where we will conduct our final and largest pro-troop rally in Washington, D.C. - on March 17, 2006 - opposite the major anti war protest.
When the rally is completed we will send each flag donated to the effort to a unit serving in Iraq and Afghanistan with a placard explaining the story behind the national effort that brought this flag of support from the United States, overseas to our troops serving in the war on terrorism.
This will be one of the most ambitious efforts we have ever undertaken at Move America Forward. We will need your support for this positive, uplifting and patriotic event.
In the coming days we will be reaching out to coordinate our efforts and offer support to such fine organizations as Free Republic, Vets for Truth and the "Gathering of Eagles " project and participating veterans groups to make sure that there is a vibrant and patriotic effort from coast to coast.
We will be posting our planned route and stops at the Move America Forward website:
http://www.MoveAmericaForward.org
Check your emails and the MAF website for more specifics on this national caravan and information on how you can join along in your own vehicle; we'll have additional information on our pro-troop rallies, and also helpful suggestions on how you can contribute a flag to this historic event.
Thank you as always for your support of the men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces and their families - they need our backing now more than ever!
Fondly,
Melanie Morgan
Chairman, Move America Forward
P.S. Forward this message on to others to help spread the word about this patriotic effort!
Move America Forward is a non-partisan, not-for-profit charitable organization committed to supporting America’s efforts to defeat terrorism and supporting the brave men and women of our Armed Forces. Contributions are tax deductible.
Left Wing Academia is attempting to revise history in order to validate anti-war stupidity in the present. You have got to read this.
Melanie Morgan writing for WorldNetDaily exposes the reality by writing a sample of Vietnam Vet response to a book by Left Wing Associate Professor Jerry Lembke of Holy Cross College in Worcester, (where else) Massachusetts.
Vets call in to Morgan’s co-hosted radio show broadcast from San Francisco telling heart breaking stories of how they were treated returning to the nation that is home of the free and land of the brave.
