This whole summer, the Iraq Summer Campaign has targeted Congressman Mike Castle for his moderate stance on the war. This is a part of a larger campaign to target several Republicans who have taken moderate stances on the war. On Tuesday Aug. 28th, the Delaware Iraq Summer Campaign hosted their last event in Rodney Square. There were several speakers and Mike Castle was invited, but he turned it down naturally. What I think this shows is that our Congressman, has become grossly out of touch with the people of Delaware. For too long now, Congressman Castle has gone unchecked for his votes with this president. Viewing this, many Delawareans came together to call upon Castle to take a stand. He said that this campaign was simply partisan, that it was only targeting Republicans, and somehow this made our views invalid. But, what surprises me most is that Mike Castle still doesn't understand that the people are against this war. The people of Delaware have spoken loud and clear, they want this war to end. In addition to this, maybe Mr. Castle should get a hint that there is a reason that only Republicans are being targeted. Maybe, just maybe Mr. Castle this is a sign that the Republican Party hasn't taken the right position on the war. Now, granted there are a few Democrats who haven't taken the right position either, but the Party has made it clear it's overall position on this war. Mr. Castle doesn't understand that this is a sign of his party lack of good judgment on this war. Take a hint, Mr. Castle. Are you with the Republican Party or the people of Delaware? This war must end.
