Breitbart News

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 administration’s 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 2004 contesting claims by then-Democrat presidential candidate John Kerry about his war record. Left-wing groups aligned with the Obama administration have even gone so far as to call the U.S. Navy Seals “gutless” for their participation in criticism of Obama.

Ryan Zinke, a member of the Montana state Senate and a U.S. Navy SEAL from 1985 to 2008, told Breitbart News: “It's a sad time for America when a President has to resort to bully tactics, intimidation, and misleading personal attacks against anyone who dares to speak out and be heard. The good thing is Americans have a long history of defeating tyrants.”

Joel Arends, recipient of the Bronze Star and chair of Veterans for a Strong America, said:

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.  The reality is as simple as it is disturbing - American lives are now in danger because this White House under the leadership of President Obama have leaked vital national security secrets.  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.

  • You know General, I feel the same way and have made the same statement.
    Never, never in my life have I despised someone as much as I do this person.

    I feel like I have to do something about it...just to relieve the pressure of my anger.

    It's not good.

  • Barry's a coward!!!

  • However, it may be necessary to be very careful about anything posted on the web as a former Marine Sgt, Brandon Raub, was just taken away in handcuffs in CHesterfield County VA for what he posted on facebook and is now being transferred to the VA Hospital in Salem VA for 30 days "observation".  Search for the name on the net for details.

      In my opinion Berry's a commie, In my opinion he will enact Martial Law just before the election and canx the election! His government is of Tyrants and if not stopped will led to the destruction of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA!!! In my opinion, if martial law is declared there will be blood in the streets of AMERICA!!!

      BUT, as I said, That's Just My Opinion.

      The armored vehicles coming back from Iraq are being painted white for the UN, and the government has ordered several hundred thousand 40 cal hollow point bullets!!! These HOLLOW POINT bullets can't be used in war, so who do you think they will be used against?

      GOD help AMERICA!!!  Be sure to VOT!!!

  • Revenge is mine sayeth the Lord.

    I certainly hope I live long enough to see this one.
    Revenge and pay-back is gona be a real bitch for these guys.

  • What is stopping the conservatives from coming right out with the bare truth on the matter of the security leaks? Why have none of them just come right out and said that OBAMA, out of his own mouth, leaked vital information that weakened our security, placed unwarranted focus of danger on specific persons, and prevented the optimal use of intelligence gained during the operation to get OBL? He is personally responsible for telling the world who, what, when, and where in regards to the OBL raid. What more needs to be said, other than he is the POS that is causing all of the security breaches for purely political and personal gains, so he thinks.

    • same is true for biden.  he revealed the seal team.

  • I would say something, but everyone said it for me.
