Campaign Video of the Day -- September 15, 2007

Today's Campaign Video of the Day isn't a campaign video. Instead we have selected MoveOn.org's latest ad entitled Betrayal of Trust.



After this video was aired Secretary of Defense Robert Gates

hinted at bigger cuts to troop numbers in Iraq than those so far approved by President George W Bush.

Mr Gates suggested the current level of more than 160,000 soldiers could be cut to about 100,000 by the end of 2008.

Don't hold your breath because according to the BBC

"The whole situation and recommendations at this point are based on an analysis by the commander in the field, plus... the situation on the ground.

"One of the sad aspects of war is there is no script. That history hasn't been written yet. And the enemy has a vote."

Hey Nancy, how come the enemy gets a vote, but Congress doesn't?
