It is a shame that Rummy didn't bring this up earlier. But, you are right, our press is for entertainment purposes only.

Thanks for the ping. If you consider all that is on Sec. Rumsfeld's plate, it is not surprising he couldn't recite this detail off the cuff.

Who in Congress did this??It takes a majority.
My guess this is part of that $87 billion that sKerry was so famously quoted on.

So does anyone question whether this act could be overridden by the War Powers act?
I think so.

Yet another pyjama-clad buffoon who hasn't the proper education or training for reporting or journalism getting the facts straight. You should be ashamed of yourself.

There's going to a whole lot of Senators and Congressmen/women that are about to come down with a bad case of foot-in-mouth disease me thinks.
To: Mister Baredog
Good point! Did the Democratic Party run a candidate that voted against funding the additional armor?
As a recently retired veteran I can tell you the Dems have absolutely no moral authority to criticize defense funding!

Well Let's just get the sumbetch from the Congress who is their spokesman to fess up to this little gem.
Bet the congressmen are hiding under their desks just about NOW.
Long Live the Bloggers and the P-Jammer crowd.
The Internet will prevail .

So does anyone question whether this act could be overridden by the War Powers act? Congress never declared it a war ... so would it still fall under that category?
