4. "...It was all about making things easy for everyone.
Democrats who needed to make a phony show of anti-war sentiment could vote for a nonbinding withdrawal timeline yet still vote to appropriate unfathomable billions more to keep the mistake going. Some of the Dem leadership even voted against the war-funding amendment, but nevertheless had felt obliged to craft a structure that would guarantee its passage."

Nailed it. That is the unvarnished truth that many find so hard to swallow here on DU.
