NH Senate Debate: on War & Peace


Doris Haddock: Iraq war was a mistake that never should have happened

Haddock said she feared Bush would become involved in “one war after another.” She has advocated pulling US troops out of Iraq rapidly and replacing them with an international peacekeeping force. “The young men and women there are in a shooting gallery, that we’ve lost over a thousand of them - and God knows how many Iraqi people we’ve lost,” she said. “I think that the war was a mistake, and I’m sorry that it ever had to happen.”

Doris Haddock: Oppose the Iraq war but support the $87 billion supplemental

HADDOCK: Haddock said, “Mr. Gregg is in favor of this mistaken and unnecessary war and I oppose it.” But she said she supports the $87 billion that Bush asked Congress to approve to support the troops.
