This NYT’s article reports on the Senate’s 51-to-47 vote Thursday evening to insist Iraq repay up to $10 billion in reconstruction unless the administration can ‘convince’ creditors that $150 to $200 billion in foreign debt be forgiven.
The House disagrees.
Politicians and the games they play. Why not cite this Daily Misleader article that states the only reason more funds are being requested now is to avoid bad publicity during next year’s reelection coverage?
