Check out this Nussle quote from 1998
http://www.iowatrueblue.com/2005/12/congressman-jim-nussle-in-1998.html#comments

"My biggest fear is going to be going to the funeral of some young Iowa man or woman who dies in this conflict and having their mother or father come up to me and ask whether or not their son or daughter died for America, or died to save Bill Clinton's presidency. I don't know what I would say to those grieving parents.

For that reason I believe the President must resign immediately."

Rep. Jim Nussle (R-IA), Congressional Record, H11963, 12-18-98.

I found this at Iowa True Blue blog written by Gordon Fischer.

1. Came out long enough under his paper bag to spout that gem...
Hope that one pops up in the MSM next year.

2. Nussle has said and done one hell of a lot in his years
in congress. There should be enough ammunition built up that he can be killed by his own bullets.
Of course there are 45% of Iowans that think that an (R) behind your name forgives any and all idiocy no matter what. We need to make sure that thinking Iowans have something to think about other than the little talking points that regressive candidates use in the place of issue discussion.
I doubt Nussle has made an appearance at any funeral for any Iowan killed in Iraq.
I am wandering here a bit but - love that nonussle.com that mlaggin put up!
Nussle - robs from the poor and gives to the rich - a hood robbing!
