Iraq Funding Bill

Pelosi, Obama and Clinton voted against the "no timetable" bill, which passed handily.

And, although there were "benchmarks" which the Iraqi government is supposed to meet in order to continue funding, it appears that less than $2 billion of the $120 billion allotted (yes, one hundred and twenty billion more), is tied to those benchmarks.

A commenter on the Obama, Clinton post:

Did you miss that these two brave leaders of the Democratic Party did not cast their votes until AFTER the issue had been decided?


Nice going.
