Vet group likes Kanjo


WILKES-BARRE, PA - Congressman Paul Kanjorski today received the endorsement of the VFW Political Action Committee (VFW-PAC).

In a letter to Congressman Kanjorski, VFW-PAC Director Salvatore J. Capirchio wrote, "This endorsement is based on your strong support for veterans, national security & defense, and military personnel issues."

The letter states that the VFW-PAC is the nation's only major Veterans Service Organization PAC.

Abortion hotheads like Barletta

Hazleton, PA – Lou Barletta, candidate for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 11th District, accepted the endorsement of the National Right to Life Committee, one of the nation’s leading pro-life groups.

“Recently your opponent, Congressman Paul Kanjorski, voted to enact President Obama’s health care legislation, which will provide government funding for health plans that pay for abortion on demand, and promote the rationing of lifesaving medical treatments."

The health care reform law does no such thing. I think this group has an agenda that goes beyond abortion.
