Kennedy On Opposing Escalation: "Now is the time, this is the moment"


Amen, Brother Ted!

We stand with you!

BobGeiger.com: Kennedy On Opposing Escalation: "Now is the time, this is the moment":

In a conference call with bloggers and activists Wednesday, Senator Ted Kennedy (D-MA) spelled out his Senate bill to legislatively stop the Bush-McCain Doctrine of escalating the Iraq war, saying 'we have to try to get this resolution done expeditiously' and urging his Senate colleagues to step up to the plate and speak out for the majority of Americans.

'Now is the time, this is the moment for Congressional action to begin to bring this war to an end,' said Kennedy, on a call sponsored by a coalition of Progressive activist groups.

Kennedy has introduced legislation that would essentially nullify the original Iraq war resolution -- which he voted against in 2002 -- and declare it obsolete based on a review of the three main components of that measure.
