actual quotes by more than one Democrat saying that. If you can't, then it's not a FACT- it's just your opinion. Please stop confusing the two.
It's about time, folks....

Some interesting polling results in recent days. For example:
According to a recent USA Today/Gallup poll, 61% of Americans oppose “denying the funding needed to send any additional U.S. troops to Iraq,” and opposition is up from 58% in February. (3/23-25, 2007).
A Bloomberg poll reveals 61% of Americans believe withholding funding for the war is a bad idea, while only 28% believe it is a good idea (3/3-11, 2007).
A recent Public Opinion Strategies (POS) poll found that 56% of registered voters favor fully funding the war in Iraq, with more voters strongly favoring funding (40%) than totally opposing it (38%); (3/25-27, 2007).
POS found also that a majority of voters (54%) oppose the Democrats imposing a reduction in troops below the level military commanders requested (3/25-27, 2007).
A separate POS poll finds 57% of voters support staying in Iraq until the job is finished and “the Iraqi government can maintain control and provide security for its people.” And 59% of voters say pulling out of Iraq immediately would do more to harm America’s reputation in the world than staying until order is restored (35%); (2/5-7, 2007).
A Fox News/Opinion Dynamics poll show 69% of American voters trust military commanders more than members of Congress (18%) to decide when United States troops should leave Iraq. This includes 52% of Democrats, 69% of Independents and 88% of Republicans (3/27-28, 2007).
According to a recent Pew Research survey, only 17% of Americans want an immediate withdrawal of troops (4/18-22, 2007). That same poll found a plurality of adults (45%) believe a terrorist attack against the United States is more likely if we withdraw our troops from Iraq while the “country remains unstable”
Should a date for withdrawal be set, 70% of American believe it is likely that “insurgents will increase their attacks in Iraq” starting on that day. This is supported by 85% of Republicans, 71% of Independents and 60% of Democrats. (FOX News/Opinion Dynamics, 4/17-18, 2007).
An LA Times/Bloomberg polls reveals that 50% of Americans say setting a timetable for withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq “hurts” the troops, while only 27% believe it “helps” the troops (4/5-9, 2007).

who is cutting off funding by way of his veto. It's obvious that he doesn't support our troops. He just wants to prolong the "war" until he leaves office and make it someone else's failure. How pathetic....

they support the bill as written. it is NOT a surrender bill...it FUNDS the troops and sets non-binding deadlines to bring them home. Americans support that bill just that way....they do not support the president's dumb veto of it.

got it all backwards- the U.S is the invading and occupying force, just like Germany was in WW2. Substitute Bush for Hitler here.

use whatever analogy you like, the fact remains that the democrat's funding bill that contained non-binding deadlines for troop reductions was supported by a majority of the voters. You can say it is like whatever the **** you want to say it is like.... but it still is supported by the majority of Americans who trust the democrats more than they do the president on the handling of Iraq. those are the facts....spin them anyway you like.

If Dems are so dedicated to defeat - why won't they cut off funding?
Oh, the voters do not want that or their surrender bill
Dems are screwed this time
