The Senate on Friday blocked a Democratic proposal to pay for the Iraq war but require that troops start coming home.

The 53-45 vote was 15 votes short of the 60 needed to advance. It came minutes after the Senate rejected a Republican proposal to pay for the Iraq war without strings attached.

The Republican measure failed by an identical vote.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said the only way to get troops the money was to approve the restrictions outlined by Democrats.

“Our troops continue to fight and die valiantly. And our Treasury continues to be depleted rapidly, for a peace that we seem far more interested in achieving than Iraq’s own political leaders,” said Reid, D-Nev.

So Iraq doesn’t want peace?

Lets take a look at Photos: Mass celebrated in Christian church newly reopened in Baghdad are done with that, head over to Maliki Approves Trial For Shi’ite Militia Leaders.
Violence is down in Iraq

Too bad that Harry doesn’t keep up with the news.

    Appropriately named, Harry ‘Hands Up’ Reid, (D-NV) will try anything within his power to deny a US victory in Iraq! He prays daily that his words, “America has lost in Iraq,” will prove to be true!
    Maybe, just maybe, some of the DEMs who follow his ways will wake up to reality.
