Danny Davis: “The main responsibility of leadership is to lead, and that is exactly…”

On the recordMarch 22, 2007

The main responsibility of leadership is to lead, and that is exactly what Speaker Pelosi, Chairman Obey, Chairman Murtha and other members of the Democratic leadership team are doing, and they are doing it with a plan. My constituents who want this war ended as quickly as possible can take heart in the fact that this supplemental sets a time certain to begin to pull our troops out of Iraq and bring them to a peace-loving home, a home where we value peace, a home where the will of the people is listened to and heard, a home where we will continue to protect and promote democracy. I support our troops, I support leadership, I support peace, and I support this legislation.
