Injured combat veteran runs against Texas tea party congressman who wouldn't meet with her
by Mark Frauenfelder from on (#3SRB2)
MJ Hegar is an Air Force veteran whose helicopter was shot down in combat. In this video, she talks about how she fought and won against Pentagon efforts to keep her and other women from ground combat positions in the military. Now she's running as a Democrat against the tea party Republican Congressman who refused to meet with her about her fight because she wasn't a campaign donor.
