Breaking on MSNOW: Senators Need More "Explicit" Commitment to end 1.7 billion fund [View all]

Grassley, Lankford and Murkowski all issued statements saying that they need a clear commitment to end the fund completely and are not satisfied with the current language.

Thune is saying that he received an assurance from Blanche that he will definitively end the fund. Blanche is going to be testifying this hour on Capitol Hill so we shall see.

Looks like even the R's have figured out that you can't trust a word that come out of these peoples'' mouths.
