LTTE “Push candidates for 'Eisenhower pledge'”, Montgomery Advertiser, Al
QUOTE
“Push candidates for 'Eisenhower pledge'”
How many more U.S. troops must be killed, wounded, and suffer post traumatic stress disorder before Americans tell President George W. Bush we've had enough of his shock and awe strategy in Iraq? It's we Americans who are shocked at Dubya's failure to defeat the insurgents in Iraq and we're awed at a $1 trillion war using borrowed money.

In 1952, Eisenhower promised to end the impasse of the Korean War and won an overwhelming victory from voters grown weary of two years of war with no victory in sight.

This is not a presidential election year, so voters cannot elect a new commander in chief but we can elect 435 congresspersons who, like Eisenhower, will put an end to the Iraq War impasse.

In November, vote only for candidates who will take an "Eisenhower pledge" to end the Iraq War.
