Return to Article: House Dems weigh delay for extra war funding

  Here's how to end the war: No bill specifically ending the war is even necessary. Remember those supplemental funding bills the Cheney regime has to constantly ask for, to continue funding the Iraq war piecemeal instead of in yearly lump sums attached to the actual defense budget? That's the achilles' heel of their war effort. The next time Bush asks for another $80 billion or whatever to keep the Iraq bloodbath going, all the Democrats have to do to end the war is to say: NO. To say "We won't allocate one more penny for your illegal war". Last I checked the Dems have a wafer-thin majority in both houses. With no Dems voting for the next spending bill it won't be passed and thus it won't make it to Bush's desk for signing.

  Congres should turn off the fosset. The war was ileagle to start with and is a quagmire costing untold lives for nothing. It is running world opinion into the dirt for the United States. Bush is to dumb and sturbern to end it and admit that he is a damd fool. It is up to congress to turn off funding and end this feasco. Ron Grube

  Quit the killing. Not one penny more for an immoral war. Walk. Take the bus. Light rail. We don't need one drop of Iraq's oil. "Thou shalt not kill." "Thou shalt not steal." Some of our ancestors killed and stole from the American Indians. Please stop the killing and thievery.
