"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Democrats May Push $172 Billion for War
Submitted by Derek Henson on Fri, 2008-04-25 15:00
?The Democrats' proposal essentially speeds up the appropriations process. Instead of approving war funding for 2008 and 2009 separately - which would mean two different debates over the war, stretching over several months - it would clear the way for the rest of the year in one blow. Such a bill could pay for the war through March 2009.?
