You can't recall it because you have blinders on to everything your precious Democratic party does.

The Democrats were trying to cut funding to Iraq because of ideological reasons not because of financial reasons. After all they DID vote to fund the war. Their only objection was to where the money was spent, not that it was spent. The proof of that is the biggest deficit in American history, courtesy of a Democrat controlled US Congress and Administration.
