Anti-war veterans target Limbaugh

ANTI-WAR VETERANS TARGET LIMBAUGH
[SOURCE: The Hill, AUTHOR: Klaus Marre]
VoteVets.org is spending $60,000 on an ad -- which will air on Fox News, CNN and, possibly, radio -- that addresses remarks made by conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh. At issue is Limbaugh’s controversial “phony soldiers” remark that was made during a broadcast last week in response to a caller who criticized soldiers who spoke out against the war in Iraq. While Limbaugh says his remark is directed at people pretending to have a service record and seeking the limelight, Democrats have taken the statement as an insult to the troops who are serving but do not support the war and called the remark “hateful” and “unpatriotic.” The ad features Brian McGough, a veteran who was injured and received the Purple Heart. VoteVets.org is an antiwar group consisting of veterans from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
