The Politico

The Politico: "'Congress holds the power of the purse and of the president continues to advance his failed Iraq policy, we have have the responsibility to use that power to safely redeploy our troops from Iraq,' Feingold said in a statement released by his office on Thursday. 'I will soon be introducing legislation to use the power of the purse to end what is clearly one of the greatest mistakes in the history of the nation's foreign policy.'"

Finally. Somebody, rising above the noise and utilizing the law to get the system working again. It's not like cutting off funding will leave our troops stuck in Iraq without a ride home. Bush will simply have to bring them home as the funding depletes. They're trying to make it seem like cutting funding will leave our troops without guns, running naked in the streets and deserts of Baghdad. Just like when anyone travels... When you start running out of money, you go home.
