Is John Kline (MN R) Among The 'Elite' Few?

St. Paul’s Representative John ‘Pee-Wee Herman’ Lesch (DFL) came back from his week long trip in Baghdad. Mr. Lesch talks about how policy decisions in Iraq are not being made by the American people but by an elite few in the military (sound like anyone we know?. Colonel John Kline (MN R) who has made several trips to Iraq to 'market' the war and continues to tout Bu$hCo failed war policies.

What John Lesch learned:
After talking to U.S. troops, Iraqi leaders, contractors from Minnesota and U.S. Embassy personnel, Lesch said he has grave doubts about a continued U.S. presence in Iraq.

"Far more policy decisions being made in Iraq are not being made by the American people, but an elite few in the military, in Washington and, even worse, those on the corporate boards of Halliburton and other contractors.

"Many contractors and troops I talked are really questioning why they're putting their life on the line. Their hands are in their hair."
