Power of the Purse: Dems Plan $100 Billion MORE in Iraq Spending

- Underused Democratic Versace Handbag-
Why won’t Democratic lawmakers finally deploy several legislative options to bring home U.S. troops from Iraq, expressly, the power of the purse?



“Despite posing some tougher-than-usual questions at hearings on George W. Bush’s open-ended Iraq War strategy, congressional Democrats have signaled they will give the President $100 billion more in war spending without insisting on timetables for bringing U.S. troops home.”
