On War & Peace: City anti-war petition led to her support-troop resolution

In 2003, Richardson said she believed the inspectors should be allowed to continue her work, and that she did not favor an invasion at that time. She was asked by anti-war groups to support a Long Beach City Council resolution declaring the city's opposition to the Iraq War. She did not support this resolution, but cosponsored a resolution declaring support for local members of the National Guard. She said she believed once hostilities began, it was important to support the troops. Source: Wikipedia article, Laura_Richardson Mar 15, 2008

On War & Peace: City anti-war petition led to her support-troop resolution

Her position on the Iraq War is that once Saddam Hussein was caught and executed, American troops should have come home. She supports a withdrawal plan beginning in six months, according to her mailers, which often contain pictures of President George W. Bush with a slash mark through his image, indicating her opposition to Bush's policies. She recently pledged to oppose any new spending for war in Iraq if elected to Congress.
