"Richmond Mayor Rudolph C. McCollum Jr. says President Bush has not made a convincing case for a war in Iraq. He is asking the City Council to take a stand on the issue. "I definitely believe there is a time for war, but I don't believe we have necessarily gotten to that point," the mayor said.
IMHO, Mr. McCollum, you are Without a CLUE regarding Foreign Policy!! Go back to sleep, DOLT!!
"McCollum introduced a resolution last night that says such a war may threaten the stability of the Middle East and likely increase al-Qaida terrorist threats to the United States. "Most cities and states are suffering fiscal crises where programs that benefit working people and the poor are being threatened by severe budget cuts," the resolution says, "and it has been estimated that a war in Iraq would likely cost the U.S. government over $100 billion, an amount that could go a long way to meeting our health and education needs."
SHADDUP, you MORON!!
"McCollum said Bush has not presented proof Iraq poses an imminent threat to America's security. He wants the president to report to Richmonders with an estimate for the cost of waging such a war and then rebuilding Iraq. Additionally, the mayor wants to know where America will get the money. He also poses these questions: What is the U.S. plan for stabilizing Iraq in the wake of a war? And what will the United States do to protect its soldiers and allies as well as Iraqi civilians?"
Rudy McCullom is a MORON and I will tell him so to his face!! What a STOOOOOPID IGNORANT JackA$$, just like Timmie "TheUkropsButtBoy" Kaine...ridiculously STOOOOPID...dangerously STOOOOPID!!!
"McCollum said he believes the United States should get support from the United Nations Security Council before attacking Iraq. The mayor's resolution comes as the United States and Britain face the threat of a veto from France, which has declared its opposition to any resolution that would lead to war. The mayor plans to call for a vote on his resolution during the City Council's March 24 meeting."
I'll be there, Mayor McCollum...be prepared fer some PrivateCitizenOutrage!!
I usedta work fer the City of Richmond and McCollum's a PI$$ant...just ask Charles Peters...LOL!!
"If it passes, the city would send the resolution to Virginia's two U.S. senators and all of its House representatives as well as to Bush. The mayor expressed concern the country could go to war before the council votes on the resolution. ...In Virginia, the Charlottesville City Council voted 4-1 on Feb. 3, passing a resolution against a unilateral war with Iraq "unless it is demonstrated that Iraq poses a real and imminent threat to the security and safety of the United States."
C'Ville's run by a bunch of Socialist DORKS, DWEEBS, and Ne'er-Do-Wells...HOO cares?!
"During a break between meetings last night, Richmond City Council members informally debated the mayor's proposed resolution. Some clearly oppose the resolution, while others favor it. "Our nation is under attack. We cannot second-guess the motives of our national leaders," Councilman Bill Johnson, who served in the U.S. Marine Corps during the Vietnam era, said during an interview last night. Johnson plans to abstain or vote against the resolution. "If there is to be a call against the war, it should come from the citizens of Richmond, not the government of Richmond," he said. Councilman G. Manoli Loupassi is also critical of the mayor's idea. "We should spend our time discussing things within our control and expertise, such as the tax rate, and not waste our time with things beyond our control," he said."
Thank you fer yer sensibilities, Council-Persons Manoli and Johnson!!
"Vice Mayor Delores L. McQuinn and Councilwoman Gwen C. Hedgepeth say they will support the mayor's resolution."
'Nuff said...are there two bigger MORONS on the planet than these two DemonRAT-DOLTS?! Doubt it!!
"Council member Bill Pantele said he is undecided about the issue. Councilwoman J.M. "Jackie" Jackson declined to comment, saying she had not yet read the resolution. Council members Sa'ad El-Amin and Joseph E. Brooks were absent last night."
Sa'ad El-Amin is ON TRIAL fer Tax Evasion...too bad the Voters in his district vote too STOOOOPID to recognize that criminals shouldn't be elected!!

Hey Mayor,RichmondGet a clue. Don't you think Richmond has enough to worry about without your bunch of boneheads trying your hands with foreign policy?
You don't have enough experience with foreign policy to work with Hanover, Henrico and Chesterfield.
Catch a clue. While your at it catch a crook or two. Heck, catch Sa'ad.
You guys are an embarrassment.
