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.
You never know on FR....LOL....Im a little touchy on this subject since my hubby spent 15mos in Iraq....he was shot at and bomb almost daily and to think that one of the enemy is in Congress...
bttt
I don't think we should refer to "Nostralitis Gigantis" in such a manner. I don't see any cheese on his moustache!
only reason Eleanor Holmes Norton can't vote on the floor is cause the GOP took control of Congress... remember, before '95 they allowed her and the "shadow" to vote.
No, arrest, prosecute, impeach, and remove.
bttt
My congresscritters contacted by email. BTTT.
This is unbelievable. Is there no shame anymore in this country? We must live in an insane asylum!
"I don't think we should refer to "Nostralitis Gigantis" in such a manner. I don't see any cheese on his moustache!"
I stand corrected.........that must be a resting catepillar on his lip.......
My jaw is still hanging open after reading this.
I am not one to use the word "treason" lightly -- but I think this qualifies. Aid and comfort to the enemy.
My congresscritters will hear about this (not that the Dem. CA's care, I'm sure!).
My rep is Mike 'Baghdad' Thompson...
Just sent a note to Charlie Bass (R-NH).
CAN'T wait for my automated response to come!!!
I agree with you about his past, but right after 9/11 he was furious. He went after the leftists trying to say it was our fault and we should blame it on poverty, you know the drill. I was shocked, as I've hated him for many years.
Since then he has pretty much dropped out of sight, or out of favor with the LSM.

Done. Trent Franks. A good man.
