Dicks in Iraq

or....

Wary Democrats keep a light on at Capitol

As Thanksgiving loomed, Norm Dicks went to Iraq, Brian Baird went up in popularity with conservative Republicans, and Maria Cantwell went to Cambodia.

Dicks, D-Bremerton, traveled with his friend Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., who chairs the Defense Appropriations Committee. They both voted for the war in 2002 and now oppose it.

Dicks is troubled by news reports that some U.S. military leaders believe the Iraqi government has wasted the breathing room provided by this year’s troop escalation.

Sorry for the multiple pings, I haven’t seen any of this news. This is a link to video of William Trower Russell III on the anniversary of Haditha, announcing his campaign-with Darryl Sharratt.
