Running from his Record of Extremism, Foster Refuses to Publicly Discuss His Liberal Agenda
Washington- With less than two weeks until Illinois' 14th Congressional District special election, Democrat candidate and liberal scientist Bill Foster is running from his extreme agenda and has committed to only debating “behind closed doors.” Bill Foster’s refusal to participate in public debates is a clear illustration that his radical left-wing agenda is far too out of touch with the voters of Illinois.
Bill Foster rejected an invitation by the Elgin League of Women Voters to publicly debate:
"The Foster campaign turned down the Elgin League of Women Voters' invitation to participate, according to Janet Poyner, president of the LWV.” (Aurora Beacon News 2/26/08)
Bill Foster’s left-wing agenda and commitment to raising taxes on the hardworking taxpayers of Illinois has forced him into exile. Foster’s campaign schedule reveals that all upcoming appearances will take place in private:
“The Foster campaign on Monday released their schedule of upcoming joint appearances, and they number only five -- and all of them will take place behind closed doors.” (Aurora Beacon News, 2/26/08)
“Bill Foster’s liberal record is far out-of-step with the voters of Illinois’ 14th Congressional District and it comes as no surprise that he would duck and run for cover,” said NRCC spokesman Ken Spain. “Foster’s refusal to debate and appear in public is further proof that he is hiding from his extreme liberal record and that he is not capable of serving the voters in Congress.”
Will left-wing scientist Bill Foster come forward and start to publicly answer the tough questions about his liberal agenda, or will he continue to run and hide from his liberal record?
