Again, Sen. Jim Webb is correct. In a conference call yesterday with the media. Sen. Jim Webb pointed out that the money we are spending in Iraq could have been better spent in rebuilding New Orleans.
Sen. Webb says that New Orleans is a "National Priority". It is, I couldn't agree. More, it's not unusual for me to agree with Sen. Webb but this one just like his view on Iraq since 2002 is very correct in my view.
New Orleans must be rebuilt.
That city is part of our American history. We can't just forget. We can't just abandon it.
Thank you Jim Webb for standing up once again above all the politics in Washington.
I don't think this statement by the Senator was a preview of tonights speech as some on the blogs have suggested. He stated to the press he wouldn't give any hints to what he wrote.
But, I am sure it will be good so stay tuned!
