THE IRAQ WAR
We need to end the war and bring our troops and money home.
The Iraq War which was supposed to curtail terrorism and help the Iraqi people has done neither. It has deteriorated into a civil war with our troops caught in the middle. And there is no end in sight.
We have spent 1/2 trillion of our tax dollars on the war so far. Much of it has gone for corporate profiteering, while our over-worked, under-paid troops do not have proper armor or reinforced tanks. Rodney Frelinghuysen continues to support funding for Bush’s failed war without accountability for how the money is being spent. And we are no safer!
Here, in New Jersey we are particularly vulnerable. The best way to keep us safe is to spend on homeland security. As your Representative, I will fight to secure our international airport, bridges, tunnels, ports, oil refineries, nuclear power plants, and our water supply. I will also fight for health care and all the benefits that those who served our country deserve.
Ending the war, bringing our troops and money home.
It’s just common sense!
