OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - A new radio ad by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is targeting Nebraska Congressman Lee Terry.
The ad accuses the Nebraska Republican of playing politics in voting against a $106 billion emergency war bill to fund troops overseas. The ad notes Terry had supported funding for troops under George W. Bush's presidency and that Republicans were quick to criticize anyone who voted against the troop-funding supplementals.
But last week, the ad notes, Terry voted against a similar military supplemental bill.
Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee director Jon Vogel said Terry was "trying to score political points through is obstruction and hypocrisy."
