Repub Advisor To Iraq Vet Group-BLASTS-Bush Admin For "Fascist" Language
Republican advisor to Iraq veterans group blasts Bush Admin. for 'fascist' language

Ron Brynaert
Published: Thursday August 31, 2006


The Republican advisor to a political action committee founded by veterans is blasting the Bush Administration for using "fascist" language in some recent speeches and interviews, and for its "unwillingness to devise a victory plan" to end the war in Iraq.

"I am a proud Republican, who ran for my party's nomination for Congress in Indiana, because I believe in traditional values," said Sam Schultz, who served in Iraq and Afghanistan with the Indiana Army National Guard and acts as the Republican Senior Advisor to VoteVets.org, in a press release received by RAW STORY.

"I also believe we need to be vigilant in defending America," Schultz continued. "That is why I feel I must speak out about the Administration's recent contention that the war in Iraq is part of the fight against 'Islamic fascism.'"

1. Good that he is speaking out
but what planet is he from? This is what the Republican party does, this is what they are best at, dividing people, tearing up the opposition with lies. No one should be shocked at what Rummy said, it's typical of the party, of the right wing cons.

3. ya, they're playing around with the word, seeing what they can get it
stuck on. * has been trying to wrap his tongue around 'Islamo-fascists' for a while now. Rumsfeld used 'fascist' and 'nazi' and attempted to smear the majority of the American public yesterday.

He might be a member of the (old guard) republican party, like my grandfather was.
