#1 You POS vote 100% to let Petraeus handle it and then turn around two months later with leglislation to cut him off at the knees. Go ahead, Face me. Pull my finger. I will break your house. Misery will follow. You do not listen so it has already started.

#2 heh - they've been home getting the biz from their constituents, and seeing the political risk in abetting the nutroots

#3 Yes, debate more amongst yourselves! The longer they work on how to make it happen... somehow... the less likely they are to pull it off. In the meantime our guys are winning over there, and the President can sign emergency funding authorities or something.

#4 Hey, Feingold? Aren't you worried that your son in Iraq may be further endangered by cutting off funding? And that's on top of your treasonous rhetoric that is aiding and abetting the enemy?

Oh, that's right. Your one of the 95% or more Congressmen/Senators whose families have carefully avoided military service to protect this country.

#6 The dhemmis are just going to debate it ad nauseum. They will keep it alive in the press for as long as they can. They won't pass this because of the political cost to them. Anything they pass will be non-binding anyway.

#7 My God! While I was reading the Murtha Bill I thought I was reading an enemy plan to DEFEAT our troops in the field! I bet that after tehy had a chance to read it (along with a good portion of their voters) they too came to the same sad conclusion. They will find some other BIG issue to work on while this one slowly goes on the back burner.
