Representative Steve King

King Dismayed at Irresponsible Comments By
Judiciary Democrat Against Senior White House Official
Washington, D.C.—At a hearing of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution, Rep. Delahunt (D-MA) expressed gladness that David Addington, Chief of Staff to Vice President Cheney, is now a publicly televised target of Al-Qaeda.

Congressman King expressed dismay and outrage at the comments saying, "Congressman Delahunt’s live, televised statement to Vice President Cheney’s Chief of Staff was an invitation to Al-Qaeda to target him.  I wonder if Bill Delahunt is ready to guard Mr. Addington's home and family."
