Possible Two Month Budget Extension For Troops

Wow, two months, that ought to help. Regardless, my favorite quotes are from Rep. Jim Moran.

He was not as clear about whether the non-military spending, such as money for peanut storage, reimbursement for spinach farmers whose crops were recalled and asbestos removal in the Capitol, would be included. Moran simply said he didn’t like it.

“I wish we’d take that s--t out,” Moran said. “It was all put in by leadership after we wrote the bill, and it didn’t get us a single vote.


You're right Mr. Moran, it didn't get you a single vote, but it did show that Democrats are willing to lower themselves to pork spending in order to buy votes. It shows that Democrats are desperate to appease their fringe constituents about the war in Iraq. It also shows that the stereotype of "tax and spend" Democrats was quite true.
