Via the always interesting Don Surber, the news that WV Sen. candidate Hiram Lewis will be on Hardball tonight:
Hiram Lewis, Iraqi war vet and candidate for US Senate (R-WV), is expected to be on MSNBC’s Hardball with Chris Matthews Thursday evening, August 18th, around 7:30 p.m. “We are unsure of the exact time, but we expect it to air sometime during Thursday evening’s show,” Lewis said.
Chris Matthews has been interviewing Iraqi war vets interested in serving in Congress. “I watched Chris tear into Patrick Murphy (D-PA) yesterday. I felt sorry for the guy,” Lewis said. “Hopefully, Chris will take it easy on me.”
Lewis continues to support the war effort in Iraq even though polls show weakening support. “We must finish the work we started. We must have the resolve to see it through,” Lewis said.
“If the anti-war crowd has an alternative plan, let’s hear it. Let’s have the debate. If not, then support the troops in the current mission or volunteer to participate in the execution of the current mission. Attempting to sway public opinion against the war, does nothing but encourage the terrorists to kill more soldiers and lower our morale.”
That will be a lively show…
