REP. HENRY WAXMAN INVOLVED IN CODE PINK'S AID TO THE 'OTHER SIDE' IN FALLUJAH
Sunday, January 2, 2005 | Kristinn

Democratic Rep. Henry Waxman (California) is reported to have given a letter to antiwar activists to facilitate their delivery of aid to the 'other side' in Fallujah, Iraq.

The leftist online publication Peace and Resistance, in an article published January 1, said that Rep. Waxman had written a letter addressed to the American ambassador in Amman, Jordan to help ease transit through Customs of $600,000 worth of medical supplies and cash collected by the anti-American groups Code Pink and Global Exchange. According to the groups' leader, Medea Benjamin, the aid is destined for the "other side" in Fallujah.

The letter was being carried by Fernando Suarez Del Solar, an antiwar activist whose Marine son, 20-year-old Jesus A Suarez del Solar Novaro, was killed in Iraq on March 27, 2003 when he reportedly stepped on an American cluster bomb fragment.

Mr. Suarez is being accompanied on the trip by fellow parents of soldiers killed in Iraq, as well as several family members of those killed in the September 11 terrorist attacks.

One Iraqi, when informed that parents of American soldiers killed while liberating his country were giving aid to the "other side" in Fallujah, asked, "what kind of people would help those killing their own sons and daughters?"

That's a question the House Ethics Committee should be asking Rep. Waxman.

Right after 9-11 Dershowitz seemed to be advocating torture of Islamics to find out the next terrorist target before it happened.

There are over three hundred replies to this article at this point in time. Most, if not all,
want some action taken against Rep. Waxman. I am sure that this total will continue to grow. Waxman is indeed a traitor. However do we really believe that the members of the exclusive club in D.C. will exercise our wishes?
I think not. This "man" was such a staunch supporter of another traitor (impeachment time) and both his constituents and colleagues let him continue. The boys and girls in Congress will do nothing about this issue. The lib's are wishing they would have come up with the idea and the conservative majority don't have the balls to do anything about it. We are living in a time when our Representatives only represent each other, not the wish of the people who elected them. If someone doesn't do something about term limits this problem will only continue to get worse.
Maybe a Second Amendment Militia needs to be considered.
I sincerely wish we could do something about Mr. Waxman but I just don't see it happening.

Yes...Dersh seemed to change his tune and break from the orthodox lib/commies after 9-11; but, IMO, he accrued so many bad points over the years, he still deserves to be on the list.

Thank you--unfortunately we saw evidence of what I posted yesterday--

Bill Frist stands up on the Senate floor and complains about the filibuster tactics used last year and explains how wrong it is, and then GIVES THEM ANOTHER CHANCE.

Instead of telling them that their obstructionist tactics are not going to be tolerated, he wimps out. So what happens, Leahy goes on rant about how they are going to DEMAND private notes and communication between he and Bush.

And, they are letting Boxer hold up electoral vote tomorrow.

(I feel a stress headache coming on!)

Sorry

Waxman is merely doing what leftists do. Help out enemies of the United States. Thus it always was. However, these people should be prosecuted for giving aid and comfort to the enemy. I don't care what they think their motivation is.

I am %1000 with you my friend, NO ONE represents us anymore. I’ve been saying for months , “IT’S TIME FOR A BOSTON TEA PARTY ACTION TO TOKE PLACE “ Something that will really rock the scumbags in power and make BIG BIG headlines. We need to seriously clean house or we’ll all wind up dead because of their greed and lust for power.

Then God Damn It we have to MAKE them do squat .. I’m so so so sick of people in politics dumping on us and we sit there and take it. We stopped the Amnesty Bill , lets keep it up and one by one attack these greedy anti American scumbags.Who the hell are these politicians anyway ? Jerk offs that none of us would have hung out with in high school.Rich sons and daughters of snobby , corrupt politicians following their looser parents footsteps. I have ZERO respect for most and would spit in the face of half of them .( PS , I had the pleasure of giving Chuck Schmuer the finger here in NYC a few weeks ago , greatest pleasure since I refused to shake Jesse Jacksons hand 3 years ago at an affair in NY City )
