Democrats' National Security Platform Stuck at Union Station
Wilson Questions Sincerity, Direction of Democrat Agenda

Washington, Mar 29 - After leaders of the Democrat party unveiled their National Security Platform today at Union Station, Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) expressed his concern about the sincerity and direction of their agenda:

"Today, Democrats came together at Union Station to unveil their grand platform for National Security. Maybe they assumed that surrounding themselves with maps, trains, and destination signs would provide their party with a better sense of direction?

"How can Democrat leaders seriously discuss their vision to strengthen our national security after voting against legislation to help law enforcement officials track down terrorists, opposing funding for American soldiers, and attempting to censure President Bush for a terrorist surveillance program? Until Democrats actually vote in favor of measures which strengthen our national security, their strong rhetoric will simply be more bells and whistles, and their platform will be stuck at Union Station."
