So a man who is considered one of the most radical on the right in the House says that if Barack Obama wins the presidency, the terrorists win? That al Qa'ida will be doing jigs of joy in the streets of Baghdad and Kabul, declaring victory on the so-called "war on terror"? And he makes this comment while simultaneously mischaracterizing Obama's positions on Iraq and al Qa'ida, and commenting just seconds beforehand that he doesn't want to discredit someone because of their name?

Iowa weeps, and deserves better than someone fear mongering votes away from the opposition party.

Would someone please tell Congressman King that he lives in the "United States Of America" not the "United States of America for White Folks with European Last Names"

Stayed recently with a military Colonel supporting Obama who has been to Iraq 3 times. Military folks financially most supported Ron Paul than any other candidate. I am from Royal Iowa area and like both Paul and Obama. 1% of the populace defends America. Was ought to all do a tour of duty and we might sing a different tune. Stephen (Steve) King is scary. Steve, you go to the front lines!
