Mr. Smith Goes to Washington on Flash Point

Democratic candidate for Congress Bert Smith was the guest on KFOR-TV's Flash Point this morning. (Dr. David Hunter, the other Democratic candidate in the 5th District race for Congress was invited but was in surgery when the show was taped Thursday according to host Kevin Ogle.)

Bert was the Democratic nominee for the 5th in 2004 against Ernest Iscrook. He told viewers today that he is the only candidate in this race who takes the same view that Congressman John Murtha is promoting and that is to strategically redeploy our troops out of Iraq. Like Murtha, Bert is a combat veteran. And, Bert's son has served two tours in Iraq. More than you can say for any of the other candidates in this important race.
