Congress is responsible for this war. They are empowered by the Constitution as the only ones that can declare it. And just because they gave up that power to Bush does not absolve them from their responsibility.
Cutting off funding WILL stop this war. Even if we have an insane president that orders his troops to fight without proper equipment and supplies the Generals if they are not also insane would disobey the orders of the commander in chief and pull the troops out of harms way. They have a duty to the troops that transcends politics.
The congress needs no mandate from the people to impeach a president for High crimes and misdemeanors...it is also there duty under the constitution.
There was a thing majority before 06 of Republicans and they did what ever they pleased because they had the power to change the rules. That was the nuclear option if you will remember.
