I think Green Party senate candidate Rae Vogeler(WI) says it well...
“If the history of the Iraq conflict tells us anything, it is that the results of regime change in Iran will be disastrous,” Vogeler said. “The U.S. economy will slide deeper into debt and possibly recession. The Middle East will slide further into chaos. The U.S. will be further isolated internationally. There will be greater anger among 1.2 billion Muslims from the Middle East to the South Pacific. Oil prices will continue to skyrocket. There will be more pointless death and destruction.”
“I am very concerned, perhaps more than our current administration and Senator Kohl, about the dangers of nuclear proliferation,” added Vogeler. “The U.S has more nuclear weaponry than any other nation. We have ten thousand nuclear war heads and Iran has none. Let’s stop nuclear proliferation by beginning to disarm here at home.”
“Sanctions on Iraq destroyed millions of Iraqi lives,” added Vogeler. “Economic sanctions are the ultimate weapons of mass destruction and the first strike in almost any war.”
I also applaud his his efforts to do his part to take back OUR congress. The way things are looking, there is not much hope for change even if we do elect a democratic congress(and that is only if they bother counting our votes next time).I don’t believe the Green Party is necessarily the best method however. There are many Democratic and Republican primaries still open. Many times these traitors to our country continue to get elected without a real challenger. Everyone needs to take the time to find out what is happening in their state and if need be run yourself or at least find a real challenger you can get behind and do everything you can to help them get elected. In the process of this primary and general election season we also need to do everything we can to expose the election fraud that is taking place in this country. Remember the exit polls? Time is running out folks, it is time to take back our country!
Most American fail to understand about the very serious consequences in Iraq and still less the consequences of our international policies and mistakes world wide. In Latin America we still think the Monroe Policy will work!
We spend over $20 billion a month on the Iraq episode and it is getting hot in hell. At home our Seniors and those that need help are not cared for. The state of our aging infrastructure and education is pathetic.
Of course Barbara and Diane would not know much about Iran except what is whispered in their ears by the Isreali lobby. That is bottom line on this issue - we have two local Senators that have sold out the constituents of California and the Nation.
I agree that we need good candidates to get these proven scumbags out and into oblivion.
