Downturn In Upstate
AP: Upstate GOP congressmen face fresh attacks on Iraq0 comments
Whatever for?
Just because this is a Republican plan? Republican-devised, -drooled-over, -marketed, -led, -promoted and signed-off on?
Just because the GOP's hands are oozing blood from the just under 3,000 dead across the U.S. on 9/11, the just under 2,700 dead American service personnel in Iraq and the staggering amount of the Iraqi citizenry who've been liberated from this mortal coil?
[Republican Rep. Randy] Kuhl spokesman Robert Van Wicklin accused [Eric] Massa[, a retired Navy commander challenging Kuhl,] of trying to score political points from the war.
"The only person using Iraq as a political issue is this Massa guy," said Van Wicklin. "The fact is that according to Iraq's National Security Advisor, attacks in Iraq are down 45 percent since mid-July."
Political and sectarian violence in Iraq claimed 3,500 lives in July, making it the deadliest month since the U.S.-led invasion in March 2003.
Hmmm...
Ummm...
"GOPer uber alles!?"
Ummm...
("Maybe Iraq's NSA isn't wiretapping all their citizens as we do here, so they're not up on what's happening?")
Ummm...
OK, just because the GOP hasn't a single clue as to how to clean up this horror show they've created?
Boy, rough crowd.
New To-Do list:
Time to call James Baker.
Call Diebold.
