A Word from Joe:
THE RULE OF THE PEOPLE COMING CLOSE...SPIN DOCTORS BEWARE!
The rule of the electorate...raw democracy is at hand. The voters will separate the 'wheat from the chaff'...the truth from the commercials. Voters are solidifying behind us because we are addressing 'people first' issues, like fair trade, jobs, education, veterans, prescription drugs, college loans... and more. The character assault and corporate money attack ads by republicans on behalf of Mike Rogers have solidified east Alabama families behind us. The old style, slash and burn, name-calling politics of Mike Rogers has energized voters who are tired of negativity and are ready to move on to better hopes and dreams.
Our campaign gains grassroots momentum each day as we meet and talk with hundreds and thousands of east Alabama voters who are tired of false promises.
As the Rogers campaign unleashes their money and special interest power on the voters...real Alabama voters are hunkering down for us. There is much energy and activity on the ground in the 13 counties of this district for Joe Turnham. Thanks to each of you that have volunteered and offered yourselves for the many tasks at hand. Keep your eyes on the Master and on the prize of having representation that puts people over special interests and statesmanship over partisanship. Let's roll and let's win. God Bless you all.
Joe
SUPPORT FOR OUR PRESIDENT AND MILITARY AS WE PREPARE FOR NEEDED ACTION AGAINST IRAQ
When America makes a democratic decision to move forward with potential military action, we should move as a country united. I supported the passage of the authorization adopted by Congress earlier this week to empower our President to take action appropriate to defend America, our allies and interests as it relates to Saddam and Iraq.
It is important that Congress appropriate the necessary funds to complete the mission given our men and women in uniform. Our leaders should continue to find a peaceful and a purposeful end to the potential threats of Saddam, but when it is time to move against this dictator, let us move as a country with resolve.
Putting America First means putting aside partisan interests long enough to unite and take care of America's security. I will always take this position as a United States Congressman. Let us pray for our President, all leaders around the world and especially for our troops and law enforcement officials. Joe
