Is Representative Bobby Scott planning to sell us out today?

I just got a call from a friend. She called Bobby Scott's office today and was told that Bobby Scott did not know how he was going to vote on the toothless, "give President Bush a blank check" Iraq war funding bill that will be voted on today in the House.

Representative Bobby Scott has stated in countless town hall meetings among his constituents that he is opposed to the Iraq War. IF he votes to approve giving President Bush a blank check to continue on his disastrous path then Representative Scott is going to have many uncomfortable town hall meetings in his future.....

There is no excuse for the Democratic party to take their constituents for granted. If they want 2008 to remain promising they had better not sell us out on the Iraq War....and they had better not sell us out with their secret NAFTA plan either. If they decide to continue their support for either of these bills....they they are as complicit as Joe Lieberman, George Bush, and Dick Cheney.

I have long admired Rep. Scott and I pray he does the right thing today. I'd hate to be betrayed by a Representative I have trusted for so long.

Buzz....Buzz....
