'''VoteVets.org ''' is a [[liberal]] [[socialist]] [[troop hating]] [[left-wing]] [[United States of America|United States]] political action committee whose stated goal is to help elect [[Democratic Party|Democrat]] veterans of the Afghanistan and [[Iraq War]] who are opposed to the Iraq War, as well as to "hold public officials accountable for the words and actions in regards to servicemembers and veterans of the aforementioned wars."

Since the VoteVets.org PAC is a front group for the Democratic Party, it regularly attacks [[Republican Party|Republcan]] politicians. During the 2006 mid-term elections, the group spent between $1.2 and $2 million trying to get [[liberal]], and I mean ''liberal'' Democrats elected into office by going after numerous Republican politicans. <ref>http://www.nytimes.com/cq/2007/05/11/cq_2709.html</ref> Senators targeted by the VoteVets.org campaign included: [[George Allen]], [[Rick Santorum]], [[Conrad Burns]], and [[Jim Talent]]. In mid-2008, VoteVets.org began airing ads attacking Vietnam veteran and former POW Senator [[John McCain]].
