TIM KAINE'S KICKS IT OFF

Tim Kaine gave a very free wheeling attack dog, shucks I'm a nice guy speech yesterday. Kaine was picked to run with Hillary Clinton.  With one convention down and another to go, it is clear that the lines of hard core support are being drawn. This will be a take no prisoners type of election. And you read it here first, this might be 2000 all over again. Anyway....here's what he said:

MEDIA MATTERS

HERO OF BENGHAZI ATTACKS APPEARING IN TELEVISION SHOW

“WARRIOR SUMMIT OUTDOORS”

SSG (Ret) Erik Olson, host of the television show Warrior Summit Outdoors, is proud to announce an extraordinary national hero is part of an upcoming episode.
One of the heroes of the attacks in Benghazi, John “Tig” Tiegen, recently joined Warrior Summit Outdoors host, SSG (Ret) Erik Olson and other wounded warriors on a special tag elk hunt in the state of Colorado, along with long-range rifle manufacturer Bobby Hart, who is a close friend of Olson, and supporter of the Warrior Summit Outdoors show mission.

Tiegen was among the contractors who, without any additional US air or ground support, fended off endless insurgents when the consulate in Benghazi, Libya came under terrorist attack for a relentless thirteen hours (as portrayed in the blockbuster Michael Bay movie “13 Hours”).
During the terror attack, U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens, Scott Smith, and former Navy SEAL’s Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods lost their lives. Others sustained serious injuries. The response of the United States government prior to, during, and following the attacks has come under tremendous scrutiny and has been a topic of great political debate.
“The plans for this special tag elk hunt in Colorado have been in the works for months,” said Tiffany Cloud Olson, the show’s writer and executive producer, “Warrior Summit Outdoors is a television show focused on how the outdoors can help warriors with the process of healing post combat. John’s is a hero who endured a great deal in Benghazi--without the support he and others deserved. We support him, and we are so pleased he understands the importance of our television show’s mission.”
“Warrior Summit Outdoors is a television show about much more than hunting. It’s is a show about people who rose to the occasion when the call came, and how the outdoors can help bring peace after combat. As a nation, we must do more to stand up for our warriors when they return home from combat. A special tag elk hunt in Colorado unto itself is an experience of a lifetime, but to do it with several combat veterans, Bobby Hart, one of the world’s best long-range shooters and rifle manufacturers…and then have a John Tiegen meet up with us…it doesn’t get better than that! I hope all will watch the movie ’13 Hours’ to get a sense of what John, and all who fought in Benghazi, endured. And of course, I hope all enjoy these episodes of Warrior Summit Outdoors.”--SSG (Ret) Erik Olson, Host/Executive Producer, Warrior Summit Outdoors
Warrior Summit Outdoors, produced out of WYLN35 in Hazleton, is the first television show in the nation created to show how outdoor activities can help combat veterans adjust and heal after war. The show’s mission: be part of the solution to the nation’s veteran suicide epidemic. Warrior Summit Outdoors airs nationwide on Youtoo America (formerly America One) every Sunday 3PM EST and replays locally on WYLN35 in northeastern Pennsylvania several times each week.
The episodes capturing this hunt are projected to premiere later this summer. To learn more follow Warrior Summit Outdoors LLC on Facebook and go to www.couragehealsthesoul.com
