Afghanistan Vote Today

Submitted by FreedomDemocrats on Wed, 2010-03-10 10:19.

Today, the House of Representatives will have a vote on a resolution offered by Congressman Kucinich to begin the process of withdrawing from Afghanistan by the end of the year. Just last summer, there was a vote on an amendment from Congressman McGovern to require an exit strategy for Afghanistan that received the majority support of the Democratic caucus. The question for today is if Kucinich's resolution will receive more support as doubts about the President's strategy in Afghanistan linger, or fewer votes because an immediate withdrawal is seen as more radical than just an exit strategy. Stay tuned . . .

65 yes to 356 against

Less Than Exit Strategy

I think the message is that there are more people who want a plan to get out than there are people who want to get out by the end of the year.
