Flip Flopper Harry (ASS) Reid yesterday announced he was going to introduce legislation to completely cutting off all funds for our troops in Iraq. All the while Bitter PILois is in Syria kissing the ass of a state that sponsors terrorism.
Harry ASS is now a top of the heap and the King of the Liberal Nutcases in Washington.
Harry ASS promised voters he would not cut off those funds during last years campaign.

Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid yesterday endorsed the Senate's toughest antiwar bill yet, a bid to cut off funding within a year, sending a clear signal to President Bush that the Iraq debate will continue in Congress regardless of whether he carries through on his veto threats.
Reid (Nev.) announced that he had teamed up with Sen. Russell Feingold (Wis.), one of the Democrats' strongest war critics, on legislation to set a deadline of March 31, 2008, for completing the withdrawal of combat forces and ending most military spending in Iraq.
Reid had previously opposed setting a firm end date for the war, a stance he has backed away from in recent months as others in his party moved to increase pressure on Bush
"Talk about a way to be depressed," Reid said yesterday in a talk-radio interview with liberal host Ed Schultz. "The American people, I repeat, have to understand what is happening. It is not worth another drop of American blood in Iraq
The White House was quick to circulate a quote Reid made on Nov. 30, shortly after Democrats won control of Congress. "We're not going to do anything to limit funding or cut off funds,"
It's completely arbitrary. It was pulled out of thin air. And the terrorists have already marked it on their calendars," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).
An even greater number on both sides of the aisle are unwilling to cut off funding. McConnell noted that 96 senators, Reid among them, voted last month in favor of Congress taking no action "to undermine the safety of the Armed Forces of the United States or impact their ability to complete their assigned or future missions."
