Shame on Them All
About that war-funding bill...
This is why Republicans are losing. Their base doesn't believe a word they say anymore.
Democrats have sought to pack $11 billion worth of new unemployment benefits into the war bill, along with extra Medicaid spending. Republicans have joined in, seeking money for NASA, bridges, health-care research, competitiveness research, the Mississippi coastline, drug-trafficking enforcement, and foreign aid. One addendum would have Congress give Louisiana $3.1 billion to help the state “match” previous federal contributions.
What has any of that to do with American military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq? Nothing.
