A resolution opposing the war in Iraq and calling for an immediate withdrawl of U.S. troops is on the Albany County Legislature meeting agenda for 6 pm today.
The resolution is co- sponsored by county legislators Steck and Bullock, and perhaps others.
Democrat Steck is an announced candidate seeking the 21st Congressional District seat of retiring Congressman Mike McNulty.
Steck and Bullock have it all wrong. They should be sponsoring a resolution calling on Osama Bin Laden, and other Jihadists, to end their War on Terror against the Western World; and to withdraw their terror cells from the United States, Canada, Latin America, Europe, Austrailia, New Zealand and elsewhere in the world.
Steck should withdraw his candidacy for the 21st Congressional District. We need a conservative Democrat to represent the 21st District, not one who would aid and abet those who seek to destroy us.
Albany County Legislators should vote this resolution down, in a slow roll call vote, letting voters know where each stands on this matter.
The resolution is out of order because it exceeds the purview of the county legislature, and more importantly, the resolution is an affront to those who have given their lives, those whose lives are on the line now, and their families.

Joe....I recollect having once seen the comical parody of a political upstart who with great agility managed in a succesion of philosophical reversals to rush himself always to the forefront of each new public craze. The awful irony is that in reality it is a ploy that works to birth new leaders. The only defense against it is deserved ridicule, and open laughter.
Lets cheer the poor soul on, while at the same time sneaking a few logical stumbling blocks into his hurried egotistical path.......W
