Oregon Congressman asks “Would you send your relative to Iraq?”

December 29th, 2006

Prior to supporting the President’s planned escalation (aka”surge”), Orgeon Congressman David Wu says people should as “Would you send your relative to Iraq?”

“We need to focus on whether we would choose to send our own son or daughter, our own wife or our own husband off for a temporary surge in Iraq,” said Wu, D-Ore. “If we wouldn’t do that, then should we permit this administration to roll out a potential product like that?”

Of course, those of us not in Congress should also ask: “Why do you continue the funding of this flawed product?”
