Early this afternoon at a VFW Post in Des Moines, New Mexico
Governor/Democratic presidential candidate Bill Richardson handed an
Iowa woman the Purple Heart her uncle earned in the Korean War…
Afterwards during Q&A with reporters, Richardson expanded on his view
that Vice President Dick Cheney should be dispatched to Pakistan to
urge Parkistani President Pervez Musharraf to hold elections, and that
U.S. aid to the country should be withheld if Musharraf doesn't end
Marshall Law and hold legitimate voting. Henderson: "Why did you say
Cheney should go to Pakistan? Do you have no confidence in the
Secretary of State?" Richardson: "I felt, no, I have confidence in
Secretary Rice."
