Appeal for Redress, Appeal for Courage

Check 60
Greyhawk (Hat tip: MM.)

Looks like Appeal for Redress will get a big boost tonight when 60 Minutes covers the group.

Don't expect much investigative journalism from this piece - the online intro includes this:

"I'm not anti-war. I'm not a pacifist. I'm not opposed to protecting our country and defending our principles," says Navy Petty Officer Jonathan Hutto, an Iraq war veteran who, along with another veteran, initiated the petition.

Hutto has never been to Iraq - if they can't get that fact straight they probably aren't going to offer the real story behind this group.

The irony is that 60 Minutes missed a golden opportunity to do what once upon a time a long time ago they supposedly existed for - expose these sorts of frauds perpetrated on unsuspecting people.  ...

After you read the rest of Greyhawk's post don't miss CSM Pendry's "Appeal For Courage" post here.
