Congressman Trades Iraq Vote for Spinach

SAN FRANCISCO - A liberal Congressman who represents California's picturesque central coast region is under fire for trading his vote on the Iraq war for spinach.

Rep. Sam Farr, a Democrat from the hippy college town of Santa Cruz, originally voted against the Iraq war and has voted against proposals to fund it each of the last four years.

This time, though, he's singing a different tune -- and critics say his change of heart has more to do with the spinach industry than anything else.
