US needs more war funds by June-Bush budget chief
The White House on Wednesday warned that the U.S. Congress must approve additional money for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan by the end of May or risk the start of Defense Department layoff notices.
"Congress needs to fund our troops by Memorial Day," White House Budget Director Jim Nussle told the Senate Appropriations Committee. "Failure to act quickly could result in an unfortunate replay of last December, when furlough warnings were issued" by the Pentagon, Nussle added.
The Republican budget director was referring to layoff warnings for some noncombat personnel at the end of 2007, just before Congress finished work on $70 billion in additional money for the wars.
That $70 billion was a portion of about $172 billion requested early last year by President George W. Bush for combat in Iraq and Afghanistan.

We must fund the war effort which will end in 5 months. And if you believe that I have a used bridge to sell.
Stop humouring these idiots. End the occupation now!
