> Former Presidential Candidate George McGovern Criticizes US Role In Iraq
9 July 2006, 17:53
So big George wants the US out of Iraq. So why, pray tell, did he endorse and support a war-criminal General, Wesley Clark, to be the Democratic Presidential nominee in 2004? An opportunist who really wanted to run as a Republican but knew he had no chance in that party? Big George is as much a phony now as he was 50 years ago when he was reelected as one of South Dakota’s Representatives to the US House with total union backing and immediately supported reconfirmation of 14-b of the Taft Hartley bill. And as the following piece shows, he recently sold out the working class yet again.

Big George likes to be known as a liberal. He never was and never will be truly a liberal.
