Nancy Skinner, Democratic candidate for Congress in MI-09, appears with Wolf Blitzer and pro-war host Steve Maltzberg, asking the tough questions that should have been asked by more members of Congress and the media in the run-up to the Iraq war.

Not many people had the courage to go against Bush in the days leading up to the war, but Nancy shows leadership and the courage we are seeking in our elected officials.

Consider voting for Nancy in the Democracy for America Grassroots All Stars contest at http://www.democracyforamerica.com/gras.

3. Nope -- our Skinner's real name isn't Skinner

4. Hey, Steve, you were as wrong as wrong can be...

there were no WMD's, there was no reason to illegally invade Iraq, and now we have a quagmire.

Why is this idiot still employed?

5. WE KNOW A LOT ABOUT IRAQ!!!

Not as much as we did you moron.

They didn't know a damned thing.

6. Nancy Skinner. She was right then and she's right now. k/r

Nancy needs to get elected NOW. I don't live in her district but I'll be doing what I can to help her.

Who is this smarmy asshole Maltzberg? Most people I see don't inspire me slap them silly. He's testing my non-violence policy.

I suppose nowadays he's saying all this bullshit about 'the Democrats had the same intelligence and they voted for the war' and 'we were right based on the intelligence we had' and on and on.

7. If you haven't yet signed up on her website to volunteer

She is the true progressive in this race and has a backbone. She will stand up to the establishment and not be beholden to them.
