This is incredible. The Dems have packed this bill so full of pork it's rediculous. Every bit of Federal Aid that Republicans have been trying to get for their constituants, that the Dems have blocked repeatedly, have now been packed into this bill so, if the Republicans vote against the withdrawl timetable, they are also voting against things that they promised their constituants. This is Nancy Pelosi at her WORST. In Florida, our Governor has line-item veto power and this is what we need at the Federal level to stop this kind of dirty politics. The Dems know that they can't get their stupid pullout timetable any other way so this is how they do it. They have been blocking a lot of these funding bills that Republicans want but they are willing to prostitute themselves by adding all this pork to a bill that would set a timetable for pullout of Iraq, JUST WHAT THE TERRORISTS WANT. The Dems are as bad as the Jihadists.

Oh and check out when her time table or deadline for pull out is?? Thats right just before an election hmmmm?? What do you think thats all about?? Could that be because she and her little party plan to use it to spin a little "Political" web on their behalf? I think that is totally what their interests are!! They could give a crap about the war or our Military personnel its all about the Politics for them!!!

It is disgusting, we definitely need to have line item veto again for the President. We all need to be very concerned about the national deficit. All of this spending in the bill will increase our debt, it is NOT budgeted.

there will never be a line item veto for the president... just because the dnc doesnt want any president to be able to pull out pork or taxes from budgets or bills they send up...
as far as the GOP goes.. they would not be in the mess they are in now had they not spent money like the DNC spends money... most of my friends just didnt vote this year to send a message to STOP SPENDING MONEY... we will of course vote in the up coming election.... but I'm more than sure lots of republicans just didnt vote for the same reason... for me the war in Iraq or the war on terrorism was not an issue... it has to be fought... doesnt matter what the left thinks... we can fight them over there.... or here.. but we will fight them, they have said so

I have said before that Congress needs to pass a bill to stop riders from being introduced with other legislation. If the two items are seperate entities (like most riders are) they should have to be considered seperately. A presidential line item veto would solve some of the problem but not all of it.

A Repub saying Dems use dirty politics??
Haha...you're funny!
Bout time we fought fire with fire. Dems have been too easy going and it bit us in the ***.
It's comforting to know that you now understand what it's like to be on the receiving end of "dirty politics".
Feels good, doesn't it?!?

You were like the class snitch...weren't you? I don't understand the need to justify your party's wrong doings by pointing out what another party does? Just act right on your own and not worry about what the other party is doing and then the people will judge.
Don't be mad at the Dems for the GOP blowing their opportunity. You had the White House and Congress and you guys blew it. You got drunk with power and spent money like drunken sailors. The people spanked you. Not go back to your huddle and straighten out your own party.

Forgive me, but why is anyone, Republican or Democrat surprised that POLITICIANS!!! of any stripe would pork barrel? ALL of them do it, the republicans did with bills and now the democrats are. Are you wilfully this ignorant of politics or just new to it.
