Bush Vetoes Full Funding of Troops

@ 07:35 PM (31 months, 6 days ago)

So of course yesterday George W. Bush vetoed a bill which FULLY FUNDED our troops in Iraq.  While most of the focus has been on the portion of the bill that included a timeline for withdrawal from Iraq, it's important to remember that the bill fully funded our troops.

And because George W. Bush doesn't want to be held accountable for his failed war, he put our troops at risk by denying them funding.
