Bill Gluba calls Nussle's bluff

Gluba pays Head Start site a visit

The scene Monday at the Head Start site at Grace United Methodist Church in Davenport was familiar: a politician reading to kids.
But if the images were similar to U.S. Rep. Jim Nussle’s appearance a week ago Monday at another Head Start site in Davenport, the message was decidedly different.


Democratic congressional candidate Bill Gluba of Davenport accused the Republican congressman of using some children for a “phony political photo op” even as Nussle sponsored spending cuts that would work against them.

“That’s hypocrisy and people ought to be outraged about it,” said Gluba, who ran against Nussle for Congress in 2004.

“Coming into these facilities and using these kids is a form of abuse,” he said.
