Foreign Banks Win $108 Billion Bailout in War Spending Bill
06/17/09
"In my seven years in Congress, this is the only time I have voted against a war spending bill," says Carter, "and the irony is that in this case a ‘no’ vote was a vote for the troops. To give $108 billion dollars of funds for our soldiers to foreign banks, including Iran and Venezuela, is in direct opposition to the best interests of American fighting forces for which this spending bill was intended. This bill makes a mockery of that original intent."
