50 billion for our troops

A 50 billion dollar plan by Democrats to fund troops in Iraq and Afghanistan is in progress, and will be sent to the president for approval. The most probable outcome is that he will veto the bill. The bills conditions are for troop withdrawal by December of 2008, for the troops to spend the same amount of time at home as they do overseas, and for an end of harsh interrogation techniques like water boarding.
The House speaker Nancy Pelosi says that this will be the last bill that she will send to the president if he vetoes again. I believe that he will veto, and that the Senate and the House will do nothing about it. They could override his veto just like they did for the water bill, but they wont. How would this benefit whole of congress? It wont, at least I don’t think it does.
The troops should come back home, they deserve it. I agree with them staying at home for a year after they have spent a year or more overseas (stop loss.) We will need the rest, the money, and the resources for our next big war with Iran, maybe Russia and possibly China. Maybe I sound farfetched but seriously the way that things are going now with this current administration and Congress not standing up for what they know is right, I’d say things look very dark in our near future.
As for our men and women overseas it seems that they won’t be leaving any time soon and possibly won’t be getting any money to be mission capable over there. While back at home our Government debates on withdrawal and money.
