Franker/Leach debate, CR 9/18
From: Franker for Congress Campaign
2nd district Democratic Congressional candidate Dave Franker will
engage Republican Rep. Jim Leach in a joint public forum/debate
Saturday, September 18 from 9:30-11:30 a.m. in the Iowa Room of the
Kirkwood Community College campus in Cedar Rapids.
The public is welcome and the format will consist exclusively of
questions from the audience after opening statements and before
concluding statements. Please come and show your support for our
Democratic candidate for Congress.
Dave has called repeatedly for the resignation of Secretary of Defense
Donald Rumsfeld. Republican Rep. Leach rejects that call, labeling that
"political piling on" and stating that "there is probably no one in
America that is more discouraged with the direction of American foreign
policy" than Rumsfeld. [Cedar Rapids Gazette, August 26, 2004]Rumsfeld
hired Leach as a staffer over 30 years ago when Rumsfeld was an
Illinois Congressman.
The list goes on: Medicare "Modernization," support of working men and
women, pension reform, women's reproductive rights, leadership of the
Congress to set the nation's agenda.
Dave's campaign is nearing the threshold for support from the
Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee [DCCC]. Please contribute
now @ www.frankerforcongress.com or by mail to: Franker for Congress
Box 587 North Liberty, Iowa 52317. Don't forget: in the event of an
Electoral College tie at 269-269, the new U.S. House of Representatives
would select the new president. Leach, a vote for Bush-Cheney. Franker,
a vote for Kerry-Edwards.
