Please watch this short Kucinich video.

Kucinich says Congress is not obligated to offer ANY Iraq Supplemental funding bill at all when Bush comes asking for more money in September. (No need to round up votes; no veto.) Congress can put Bush and the Petagon on notice NOW, while there is still PLENTY of money in the pipeline, that there will be NO supplemental war funding bill offered in September, period.
WHAT DO YOU SAY ABOUT THIS STRATEGY, CONGRESSMAN MILLER??
By putting them on notice NOW, Congress would not be accused of putting the troops in harms way without funding. This would give the Bush administration plenty of warning and time to start preparing and implementing a phased troop withdrawal plan. If Bush fails to take these steps, Congress can begin Impeachment against him for recklessly endangering our country and our troops.
Yes this is showdown brinkmanship, but it puts Congress on the high ground and Bush on the defensive, and it renews the public's respect and trust in Congress. And it's the only way we'll get these maniacs to end the Iraq occupation. The incremental legislation strategy is just playing into their game! You can't use parlamentary rules and procedures with people who have shown they have no respect for the law or the Constitution.
