Brownback Update 2 (November 25, 2007)

Sam Brownback recently called for a withdrawal of a report estimating that the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have cost the US government 1.5 trillion dollars. Borwnback argues that this estimation is "political hyperbola" deceived in the form of "academic research". Also, he argues that many of the costs, such as the effect of war on the oil prices, are nearly impossible to quantify.
Brownback along with Senators Clinton, Bayh, and Lieberman sent a letter to the President of ESRB asking for a review of their game reviewing system. The letter is in light of the reduction of a rating on a violent game called "Manhunt 2". The game, which possesses "gory kill animations", had its rating changed from "Adult Only", to "mature".

Brownback 2012!

On October 19th 2007 Senator Sam Brownback announced his withdrawal from the presidential race in a transcript. Although he is not part of the race any longer, he still is heard stressing his beliefs on issues such as abortion and marriage and human dignity. After pulling out of the race he took the time to thank everyone that had supported him and now effects the candidacy in an indirect way. For example, many of his beliefs match that of John McCain's which could help push him in the polls.
