U. S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Health and Iraq Accountability Act

House Majority Leader, Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), is leading the charge to get the Democratic "anti-war" bill passed.

In order to get the bill passed by her Democratic colleagues $29 Billion in "pork barrel" spending is part of the bill. The billions include money for veterans' health care (one of the good parts), drought relief, more help for Gulf Coast recovery from hurricane damage, $60 million for Pacific Coast salmon fishermen and $25 million for Salinas Valley spinach growers.

In order to make the bill more "deceiving" the sponsors have named it "the U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Health and Iraq Accountability Act." Maybe it should have been named "the Nancy Pelosi Pork Barrel and Bribery Scheme to get the Bill Passed Act."

Don't re-elect incumbents!
