| Dear Friend,
Black Hawk pilot Tammy Duckworth lost both her legs in Iraq when a rocket-propelled grenade hit her helicopter. She earned a Purple Heart for her service.
But she isn't a "true hero?"
Shockingly, that's exactly what Republican U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh said last week.
He almost got away with it too. Until ThinkProgress researchers uncovered the malicious attack buried in a 90-minute video of a Walsh town hall.
This is the type of thing Republicans say when they think no one's listening. Usually they pull it off without getting their hands dirty.
Not this time. We dug deep and found it.
Right now, we need to build our team so we can pull truths from dark corners from now until Election Day. Will you help now so we have time to make a difference before November?
Click here to rush $5 to ThinkProgress to help us hold officials' feet to the fire and report what no one else will.
Best,
Judd Legum Editor in Chief, Think Progress
P.S. Heading into the fall there will be more Joe Walsh's, more desperate attacks, and more maliciousness. With your support, we can be there to hold them accountable. Rush $5 today and we'll keep holding the far right accountable for the things they say. |
