If not last year, maybe this year

The Pentagon budget for last year included $20,000,000 to commemorate our success in Afghanistan and Iraq with a celebration in Washington. Since success has not yet come, the money is now part of this year's budget.

In the spirit of supporting our troops the Senate approved this money unanimously and the House overwhelmingly approved it. Now, the Democrats ask us to forget that approval as they lambast the appropriation.

When will we once more have decent representatives in Washington and elsewhere?

.......with inflation, they may need to up the figure substantially by 2020.
