Gov. Ehrlich (R-MD) backs policies on Iraq. Links Iraq to 9/11.

On the eve of President Bush's Annapolis speech on the war on terror, Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. endorsed the administration's military policies and linked the Iraq war with the 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

A day after declining to comment on the war on the grounds that it is a federal issue, Ehrlich dismissed calls by war critics for the United States to withdraw its troops from Iraq.

"I think the majority of the members of Congress and the majority of the American public understand how wrong it would be to cut and run in Iraq. The polls show that," he said.

He added that the public needs to realize that the people who flew the planes into the twin towers in lower Manhattan "are the same people who are shooting at us in Iraq."

Email Bobby HairCut and let him know he is wrong about the Iraq-9/11 link and he's running about the polls. Majority of Americans support a timetable for withdrawl.

10. How did this clown get elected in the first place?
Was he a "stealth wacko" like Milt Romney of Massachusetts?

11. I don't know.
It was like all the people in MD went into a fugue state all at the same time on election day.

12. I would prefer you call him "Shitt" when referring to the failed goober
that now resides in the MA Statehouse. It's the only respectful way to refer to that pile of horseshit. :P

14. He was elected on the following basis.
The previous admin was pretty corupt.

Lt. Gov. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend was a horrible candidate.

Ehrlich, love him or hate him, is a charismatic guy.

He's a complete opportunist. He campaigned as a moderate reformer, but has turned out to be staunch conservative.

17. He ran against Kathleen Kennedy Townsend
who was a dreadful, boring candidate. O'Malley should be able to beat him in 2006.

18. We must bind Steele to Ehrlich and Bush
He can't be allowed to establish any kind of separate identity or we will have a Rethug Senator (barf!!!). The WaPo is forever running aritlces about him. I want to see something about Cardin or whoever else is running for Sarbannes seat.

6. This is the scum that's got a fullblown Rove-style sliming operation
in his administration--involving, among other useful idiots, freerepublic.com.

13. Bring back Willie Don!
Even HE's preferable to this wingnut and his sidekick Michael Steele. Just another reason I am SO glad I left the DC area three years ago.

15. Ill take my chances with O'Malley and Duncan in '06.
Schafer can no long be considered a democrat. He's attached at the hip with Bob Ehrlich.

23. This is the sleazeball whose office contains a Rove-style
malicious gossip operation. And, as with the Swift-boat sleazeball operation, freerepublic has been directly involved in the smears.
