CO-Sen: Udall Stands Up For the Troops

I just got this e-mail blast in my inbox, and thought it’d be worth sharing.  It looks like Rep. Mark Udall is aiming to get the House to pass a resolution condemning Rush Limbaugh for his recent denunciation of servicemen and women who don’t toe Bush’s line on Iraq as “phony soldiers“:

JOIN AS AN ORIGINAL COSPONSOR OF A RESOLUTION HONORING OUR ARMED
FORCES AND CONDEMNING RUSH LIMBAUGH’S ATTACK ON “PHONY SOLDIERS”

Dear Colleague:

On September 26, 2007 the broadcaster Rush Limbaugh told a nationwide
radio audience that members of the Armed Forces who have expressed
disagreement with current policies of the United States regarding
military activities in Iraq are “phony soldiers.”

On Monday I will introduce a resolution honoring all Americans serving
in the Armed Forces and condemning this unwarranted attack on the
integrity and professionalism of those in the Armed Forces who choose
to exercise their constitutional right to express their opinions
regarding U.S. military action in Iraq.

Sincerely,

Mark Udall
