June 16, 2005Legislative GiantsFour house members Push Resolution on Iraq Pullout. Bring it on! Mr. Speaker, call a vote! That would be the quickest way to get this out of the way, instead we'll get a bunch of news items, as if it is really happening. The sponsors are Reps Ron Paul (Why don't I vote Libertarian?), Dennis Kucinich, Neil Abercrombie of Hawaii, and Walter Jones, (R-NC) one of the four who voted for the war. What other patriot acts has this legislative giant accomplished? Two years ago, Jones helped lead an effort to ensure Capitol Hill cafeterias retooled their menus to advertise "freedom fries" instead of french fries to protest France's opposition to the war. Serious folks here, we'd better pay attention. Politics Posted by jk at June 16, 2005 5:44 PM |
