Dodd Calls for End to Iraq War

[cal04]

Democratic presidential candidate Chris Dodd said Saturday the United States cannot afford to wait for President Bush's successor to end the war in Iraq

"We really can't wait another 18 months," the U.S. senator from Connecticut said while campaigning. "We have to have the convictions to stand up to this president."

Dodd said the war has been waged "for all the wrong reasons" and that it is eroding both the nation's security and its moral leadership.

For those reasons, he said, it was not difficult for him to vote in the Senate against continued funding for the Iraq war. "That wasn't a courageous vote. It was the right vote to cast," Dodd said. "I don't know how you justify the status quo."

1. Dodd is coming on stronger and stronger for me lately - I believe Gore is running

and will wait till end of September before i move on. Clark could move me - IF- but I haven't seen any signs.

I wonder how wised up Dodd has become over voting machines, though. He wasn't very astute in 2004 when he was SUPPOSED to be.

2. Tell Dodd to call for an end to secret corporate vote "counting" and maybe we'll

one day see an end to the Iraq War.

He and Tom Delay and Bob Ney were the architects of electronic voting run on "TRADE SECRET," PROPRIETARY programming code, owned and controlled by rightwing Bushite corporations. Necessary to ram an unjust, heinous war down the throats of the American people. October 2002. IWR. And HAVA.

Ask him about it. Go ahead. See if you can get a straight answer from the fork-tongued creature.
