have come under (justifiable) attack regarding the continued funding for the Iraq war despite the fact the public is overwhelmingly in favor of bringing the troops home and getting out of there.
I suspect the congressional Democrats are looking to 2008, and they think that not voting for the funding would be viewed as not "supporting the troops." My feeling is they would support the troops if we'd just get the hell out of there.
But a lot of people are mad, and Democrats are going to have to do a lot of explaining.
