Report Refutes "Urgency" of War Funding
Truthout's Maya Schenwar reports: "despite the Bush administration's warnings renewed Iraq funding is immediately necessary, a November Congressional Research Service (CRS) report, obtained by Truthout, states preexisting funds can easily finance the war through February, and probably beyond. While the Army cites January as the deadline for replenishing funding for the 'global war on terror,' the CRS notes the Department of Defense could reasonably slow its 'non-readiness-related spending,' stretching money transferred from the general defense budget to last another month."
