however, I’m going to also mention that I support our present administration’s intent not to abandon Iraq now, to pursue and detain or destroy terrorists, and to maintain a secure and safe nation.

However, I will ask the President to speak with Cindy and the other mothers of service people lost in the war. I’ll ask him to find the courage and decide to admit some mistakes, and to do his part to change the Republican Party’s stance on environmental issues, so that it takes full responsibility for effecting change that can keep our air, water, and land clean, and save our lives, health, and the existence of other life forms too.
