Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.), chairman of the Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense, said Thursday that an upcoming Iraq spending bill likely will wait until October and potentially later because Congress still does not have final requests from the Bush administration.
Of course, when the final requests appear the bill willl have to be passed RIGHT NOW OR ALL THE TROOPS WILL DIE. Unless, of course, our great leaders learn to get out in front of this stuff for a change.
