Congressman Filner: A Moonbat's Views on Iraq
Yet another congressman held a town hall-type forum where supposedly all viewpoints are welcomed. Except, of course, the viewpoints opposite of those held by the person holding the forum (and, apparently, much of the audience).
Smash over at Military Outpost went to such a forum being conducted by anti-war Congressman Bob Filner.
Here's the question Smash asked:
We all want the war to end, and the troops to come home safely -- especially those of us who have been there. But, putting aside for the moment your differences, and the differences of most of those here, with the current administration on the policies that got us to where we are today:
Are you committed to the success of our military in Iraq, or are you resigned to failure?

Frankly, I can't believe that someone like him got elected. Based on the transcript provided, his public speaking skills are horrendous and his grasp of what he's discussing is tenuous at best. Someone buy this guy a clue.
I am not impressed. And he's from California! What a shock.

Pam, I read the transcript and listened to the audio. I must say you were generous in your assessment of the Congressman. The guy is an idiot. Period. I find it hard to believe he's in Congress. Scary.
