Ted Re.Senator Murray represents the state of WA in Congress.
True,Senator Murray does represent the state of WA in Congress as part of her duties.

People of the State of WA are her employer

AFAIK the GAO pays her wages, so technically she works for the federal gov. but she represents the people of the state of Washington.

The latest polls show a majority of the people in the state of WA are against going to war with Iraq.

So. That is not what she said. I seriously doubt if the good people of Wa. think kindly of OBL and believe the US should emulate his practices.

They believe it is more fruitful to put US resources into hunting down al Qaeda operatives

Now how do you know OBL and/ or his operatives aren't in Iraq. Did Saddam send you a private email?


removing Saddam from office and embarking on the questionable task of additional nation building.

Really. Then maybe you should get on the phone and call Sen Murray. This is part of her forward to the address to the senate on the Iraq resolution,
http://murray.senate.gov/~murray/releases/02/10/2002A09F14.html
Murray acknowledged that Saddam Hussein is an evil menace and agreed that disarming Iraq’s weapons capability is America’s most important objective – and one that could require military action to achieve

Don't you just hate it when she keeps contradicting you all the time.

think you are out of line telling me how the Senator of WA should speak. Once again, one of the founding principles of this country is the freedom of speech. Sen. Murray has every right to voice her, or the state's opinion in Congress, in schools, in Hell!<

AH, but does she have the right to yell fire in a crowded theater. If she was out campaigning fine,she could say whatever, but in a school setting, where she is acting as a representative of the gov. no.

Because she is my representative and not yours.

I would agree that she is your representative. I doubt if she was elected to be your personal representative, as you are the only person I have found on the internet from WA or anyplace else speaking in favor of her position. Please proved a link if you find someone else. Where is Alighieri et el. How come they haven't spoken on your side on this one.
