Congressional Democrats have proposed an additional income tax to pay for the Iraq war they said they would end. Another money grab by liberals who use any excuse to take money from people who have the audacity to actually work for a living ?

Their vocal opposition to the Iraq war is a sick joke. They know the islamofascists we are fighting in Iraq would love to come to America and kill every liberal, and they see this as an excuse to steal more money from American workers to finance the social programs that will only be possible if we win in Iraq.

How about this one, the President isn't going to end the war, people like you think the money for the war is free and democrats have taken a necessary step towards ending the conflict by doing something they know people won't stand for, more taxes to pay for this fiasco. I think it's designed to outrage people and hit them in the only place it works, in the pocketbook. I think it will start to change some minds if people actually are directly affected, especially monetarily. I call it a shrewd maneuver to get around the republican officials going directly after their base, and we all know how much republicans love to try to hold onto their money. I'm sure most won't like having to actually start paying extra for their support of this fiasco.

What? We were told it would only be 6 months there. We were told it would pay for itself. Neither have worked out that way. So how do you propose to pay for this fiasco? How do you intend to pay for the rebuilding of Iraq? How do you intend to take care of the wounded soldiers and families. Not for just today but for generations from now? And as truly planned we apparently aren't leaving any time soon. That is what needs to be dealt with. What are you planning to do to fix this? Before you go after others, look to your own.

Who is supposed to pay for this war? Or are we supposed to keep falling more and more into debt to the point of bankruptsy? Someone has to pay for the GOP war. Tell you what! We'll just raise the taxes for those who supported this war so you can show how much you support it. I think that is your patriotic duty. I've fullfilled my patriotic duty by opposing this war in the first place. If you listened to me and the liberal left in the first place, we would have saved you the money that you threw away in Iraq.
Sione: BRAVO! for making the analogy between the $35 billion in funding for the health care of children in this country that Bush is threatening to veto and the over $150 billion he asked for and got to continue bombing children to death in Iraq. The GOP and cons would rather kill children in Iraq than help them in our own country.

Regardless of whether they are for the war or not, Democrats realize that those that are already over there fighting the "war" are going to continue to need funding until we are able to bring the troops back. There's not currently a magic button that the Democrats can push right now to evacuate immediately and the troops are still going to need funding until that button is found.
Why is Bush so dead-set against funding for children to get insurance coverage when they can't afford it and vowing to veto the SCHIP bill, while so willing to keep funneling as much cash as possible into this so-called war?

It's called reality. Bush spending of over $600 billion so far for this war has sent the US into deep debt with no end in sight. The bill at least tries to account for and put accountability to the war spending. I see little hope that it will pass though. Seems more of a symbolic measure.

It is their way of sticking it to America for electing Bush. Remember, their agenda revolves around hating everything Bush. They will tax you up the ying-yang and blame Bush for it. Let's hope we don't find out.
