SKELTON STATEMENT ON THE PRESIDENT’S SPEECH ON IRAQ
“I am worried about the strain on our Army and the plummeting recruit figures over the last several months. We will not know whether his speech tonight was successful or not until we see the Army recruiting figures for the next two months. If the recruiting figures continue to decline, the President has not made his case to America’s mothers and fathers. The President is the Commander in Chief of our Armed Forces and is, after all, the chief recruiting officer for our military.”
