I get some of my best ideas in the shower. And some of my worst. I'm not sure which this is, but here goes...
Congress controls the purse strings for the War.
Congress can withhold funding for the War.
We (at least in theory and 10th grade History class) control the Congress through elections - but we also control elections through funding.
I know this is a left leaning site, and I also know that there are plenty of right wingers who read here as well. What if we were to get together on this issue since a majority of Americans want our troops home and neither Congress nor our President are doing anything about it, why don't we withhold our funds.
Republicans and Democrats alike - No Congressional political contributions until Congress forces a troop withdrawal. No presidential contributions to candidates who don't commit to ending the War in Iraq and avoiding a War with Iran.
What do you think? So crazy it just might work? Or not at all workable?
I had this other idea about a toaster that also poached an egg and heated Canadian bacon so you could make egg McMuffins at home easier, but then I saw the very thing at the store.
I bought it.
