Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold issues comments concerning assassination of Benazir Bhutto

Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold sits on the Senate Foreign Relations and Intelligence Committee and was one of the first congress members to issue a statement regarding the assassination of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. Feingold was also featured on the Ed Schultz radio show today. We hope to have those comments for you later today or early tomorrow morning. The statement from Senator Feingold below:

“The assassination of Benazir Bhutto is terrible news for those who support a stabilized democracy in Pakistan, both in that country and around the world. Bhutto was a brave leader who was beloved by millions in Pakistan. The questions surrounding her assassination should have direct bearing on both the future of democracy in Pakistan and the relationship we will have with a country that is so critical in the fight against global terrorism.”
