So much for supporting the troops. The vote was actually 56-44 in favor of a vote on the Webb Amendment, but under a procedural agreement, because 60 votes were not obtained, the amendment was withdrawn.
What I would really like to know is why the Democrats do not force the Republicans to stand up and filibuster on a "support the troops" amendment like this one. So disappointing. Let the public SEE who is enabling the war and who is refusing to treat the troops with respect.
