Congressman Sam Johnson speaks against the Democrats' plan to micro-manage the Iraq War. Congressman Johnson served in the U.S. Air Force for 29-years as a highly decorated pilot. He flew combat missions in both the Korean and Vietnam Wars and was a prisoner of war in Hanoi for nearly seven years.
Another example of government (mis)education. "Profiteers" is a dead give-a-way at to his meaning, and denigration of capitalism is his goal.

You mean like Dianne Finestein and Murtha's brother, who, unlike the ones you named, aren't in Iraq actually risking their lives. Cite that bogus study, it shows the simplicity of your thinking and lack of education. No one respects that figure but the anti war left.

At least it's better than funding HALLIBURTON, KBR, BLACKWATER, and the rest of the WAR PROFITEERS.
God Bless the War Profiteers - spreading CAPITALISM across the world as more than 600,000 Iraqi civilians DEAD.

Good speech from a good man. Whatever your politics, to hold the troops ransom, or to extort for your own selfish gain at their expense is truly despicable.

Bravo! Today's Dem leadership is not serious about anything except winning the next election. Everything, including our foreign policy, gets trumped by politics.
Serious, patriotic Democrats need to regain control of their party!
