Eliminating bin Laden
Fox News reports that Democrats know how to get the job done:
Congressional Democrats promise to "eliminate" Osama bin Laden and ensure a
"responsible redeployment of U.S. forces" from Iraq in 2006 in an
election-year national security policy statement.
Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid says it all:
"We're uniting behind a national security agenda that is tough and smart and
will provide the real security George Bush has promised but failed to
deliver," Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said in remarks
prepared for delivery Wednesday.
Move On.org update
Move On.org is calling on all radical left leaning members to go to work on
voters in the special election to fill David Duke's congressional seat:
Dear MoveOn member,
In the next two weeks, we can elect a new progressive to Congress—and set
the stage for winning back the House in November.
Rep. Duke Cunningham (R-Calif.) took huge bribes and went to jail. On
April 11th, there's a special election to fill his seat and
progressive Democrat Francine Busby has a great chance.
Will you make calls from home to voters in her district? If 10,000 of us
call 30 voters each—only 2 hours of calling—we can help her win and hand
Republicans their first defeat of 2006. Sign up to start calling tonight or
tomorrow night:
http://political.moveon.org/phone/volunteer?cmt=30&id=7137-3383857-BohNlg9mjjZbXrnxEXvSyA&t=2
If you can be on the phone (land line or cell) and on your computer at
the same time, you've got what you need to make calls. Our website will
give you voters to call and tell you what to say so you can get started in a
few minutes.
Bayh in New Hampshire
Sen. Evan Bayh (D-IN) was recently in New Hampshire telling the Granite
State Democrats what they wanted to hear, according to the
Union Leader:
Bayh made clear yesterday he wants things to stay as they are — with no
other contests between Iowa and New Hampshire.
"I hope you retain your position. I'm going to do everything I can to keep
it that way," said Bayh. His words were greeted with a standing ovation from
the partisan crowd of about 150.
"Now that I've won the Profiles in Courage award, that's what I believe,"
Bayh added, to laughter.
Pushing-back Russia
Reuters is reporting that the United States has put new roadblocks in
the way of Russia’s joining the World Trade Organization. The relationship
between the U.S. and Russia has cooled over their position with helping Iran
achieve nuclear capability. Russia also teamed up with China in weakening
the U.N.’s response to Iran:
"We have received a list of questions from our American colleagues requiring
additional agreement which we considered settled long ago," Putin told a
Kremlin meeting with Russian business leaders.
