Mike Castle of Delaware Delivers Weekly Republican Address

Rep. Mike Castle (R-DE) delivers the latest Weekly Repulican Address:



Here is an excerpt from his remarks:

Last week I traveled to Afghanistan and Pakistan with a Congressional deelegation to see firsthand the progress we have made in reversing the momentum of the Taliban and the many remaining challenges we face.

There is a strong professionalism and commitment demonstrated by our men and women in uniform, as well as by those in our civilian institutions who serve on the front lines.

Particularly since the surge in Afghanistan began, we have seen progress toward helping establish a country that can govern itself, defend its borders, and be an important ally in fighting terrorism.

However, we need to remain focused on our goals and maintain a sense of realism about what is achievable for this region.
