21 Republicans who hate our troops
These are the 21 senators, all Republican, who voted no on the $109 billion spending bill for the war in Iraq, Katrina and some boondoggle projects:

Alexander, Tenn.; Allard, Colo.; Bunning, Ky.; Burr, N.C.; Chambliss, Ga.; Coburn, Okla.; Craig, Idaho; Crapo, Idaho; DeMint, S.C.; Ensign, Nev.; Enzi, Wyo.; Frist, Tenn.; Graham, S.C.; Gregg, N.H.; Hagel, Neb.; Inhofe, Okla.; Isakson, Ga.; McCain, Ariz.; Sessions, Ala.; Sununu, N.H.; Thomas, Wyo.

Now, if Democrats had lined up to vote against a bil that provided money for troops in the field during a time of war -- no matter what other garbage was thrown into the bill -- the screaming and yelling from the right would be deafening.

1. The War Pigs only know how to commit troops...
They have no clue on being committed to the troops. Everything humanly possible must be done to keep our men and women in battle as safe and equiped as possible.

2. I'm fairly sure
I'm fairly sure that they were voting against the additional $10 billion that was added to the project, and not against the troops. With as much ammunition as the GOP provides, we really don't have to resort to making shit up.

3. You obviously don't have a clue
Either that or you are incapable of comprehending sarcasm.
