No funding =in harms way? BULLSHIT
The a-holes in congress seem to think that suddenly, in the middle of a firefight, our soldiers will run out of bullets. That they will be "needlessly killed" (as they haven't been already) if we don't give Halliburton and company billions more. I don't buy it. That wouldn't happen. The troops would simply have to stop actions and start redeploying home. Didn't a recent GAO report back this up?

1. Yes, but it's imperative that Congress give one long, big, wet kiss to the War Profiteers
in order to "hold them over" until our Idiot King mini-nuke bombs the shit out of Iran and sets the entire Middle East ON FIRE. :shrug:

Newsflash: It doesn't require all that much to care for "the welfare" of the troops. The lion's share of those billions upon billions will be going into the pockets of the corporations WE WORK FOR, i.e., Lockheed Martin, et. al. :grr:
