11. Way to support the troops...
The $67 billion for the troops was packaged in with the roughly $20 billion for Iraqi reconstruction, as you all know. By voting against it, Dennis not only opposed the Iraqi reconstruction, but he opposed the troops. That bill had money for their food, their health care, their equipment, and their combat pay. I am disappointed in Kerry, Edwards, and Dennis for voting against this money. I opposed the war, too, but face facts: the troops are not coming home. Voting against this bill is not endorsing them being there, it is simply funding the troops. Dennis needs to grow up.
