The other day, we saw the Governor with our troops in Iraq. Here's a video put out by the Corzine's office on his Iraq trip:But going over to support our troops also brought concerns to the Governor about the economy back on the home front:
After greeting troops guarding the Camp Bucca prison in southern Iraq, Corzine said many were anxious about the recession or possibly losing their jobs back home.
"They're fearful about how they will fit back into economic life when they come home in June," Corzine said, speaking on a teleconference with reporters from Baghdad. But he called the troops "extraordinarily professional."
Our troops are protecting their country and dodging fire, but they're concerned about what they will return home to. You would think they already have enough to worry about without the economy at home weighing on their mind.
