15. Pelosi is doing all she can do.
As I remember a bill was past putting forth a timetable for withdrawing troops. If you don’t have the votes to override a veto, the only other choice is de-funding the military while there are troops in a war zone. You are right the majority of Americans do want an end to the war, however what you don’t realize is that they what an end to war through a responsible draw down with a timetable. Yanking the troops out is not palatable for the majority of Americans, if you de-fund the military that’s exactly what will happen.

With those facts present Nancy Pelosi is doing what the majority of Americans want. What we should be doing is going after the real obstruction to the will of Americans the REPUBLICANS!
