Iraq War Veteran Running for Congress -- Says It Like It Is!

I'll summarize this article for you: Iraq War Veteran (Black Hawk pilot no less)returns home minus two legs (no one would deny she's a war hero), runs for Congress, claims George Bush has no real plan to win the war, only a plan to win over voters. This is what I've been saying all along. (It was apparent to me there was no real plan during the "Mission Accomplished" fiasco and widespread looting after our invasion of Bagdad went unchecked.)

"Instead of a plan or a strategy, we get shallow slogans like 'Mission Accomplished' and 'Stay the Course,"' former Army Capt. Tammy Duckworth stated. "Those slogans are calculated to win an election. But they won't help us accomplish our mission in Iraq."

The rest of the article, which I rate a "C" (take it or leave it) is at http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/09/30/Dems.radio.ap/index.html

My article rating system:
A = Must read, educational, informative.
B = Should read for more informative details
C = Take it or leave it. I've summarized the main points
D = No need to read.
F = It's so bad, you SHOULD read it.
