WASHINGTON - The Senate on Wednesday rejected legislation that would cut off money for combat operations in Iraq after March 31, 2008.
The vote was a loss for Sen. Russell Feingold, D-Wis., and other Democrats who want to end the war. But the effort picked up support from members, including presidential hopefuls previously reluctant to limit war funding — an indication of the conflict’s unpopularity among voters.

The proposal lost 29-67 on a procedural vote, falling 31 votes short of the necessary votes to advance.

The Dems claim it is the will of the American people to abandon the troops and surrender in Iraq. Then how come 67 senators voted AGAINST doing exactly that. Ya, we know, you think it is political. Perhaps the smart ones in the senate can read the tea leaves of the current Congressional approval rating that is in the tank. Perhaps, not unlike this blog who contacted them on another issue, immigration, they are beginning to listen to citizens rather than special interest and doing the right thing. Win in Iraq. We Win, They Lose. End illegal immigration and thoughts of amnesty.

Feingold and Reid are two peas in a pod. And 67 senators just told them AGAIN what they can do, and can’t. More on this later like publishing who the surrender puppets are.
