Twista Calls Upon Americans to Appeal to Government
Wednesday May 2, 2007- Atlantic Records recording artist, Twista, has voiced his opinion on President George W. Bush’s veto of a $124 billion Iraq Spending Bill which also set a timeline for American troops to be completely withdrawn from Iraq.
Calling the President’s actions “bogus”, in his blog with Red Eye, an edition of the Chicago Tribune, Twista went on to call upon Americans to appeal to the government: “We need to say something effective to bring our troops back home. We have troops dying every day and I think it's time that they come back home.”
Twista shares that he feels that Americans should write to their Senators, Representatives, and Governors in response to the veto. On the situation in Iraq, Twista commented, “I kind of feel the way Rosie O'Donnell feels: They didn't attack us so why should we have to attack them?”
