all usa funding for iraq stopped at the end of august wasnt it?

True. Fred Barnes on FOX News said the House could start stripping away the funding for the troops. I also don't think this will happen unless the far left can push the moderate left into that plan. No matter, it is still a potential worry. I've seen some battleplans where this wouldn't have ever happened. You wouldn't even believe the incompetence and lazyness of what happened here. I voted straight Republican today, but they got a loud and clear message anyway. This type of arrogance will not be tolerated by middle America. Sure makes things interesting........
