The military has the largest budget item in the gov't if I'm not mistaken. The Pentagon is awash in money. I believe the base 2007 budget for the Department of Defense is $440 BILLION. The military will not need to "fight its way out of Iraq with no funding or support," and it won't need to hold a bake sale. There is more than enough money in the military budget of an orderly withdrawal from Iraq, and you can bet your bottom dollar that the Pentagon has already planned for that contingency.
Congress: stop funding crimes against humanity in our names!
