Public wants congress to cut back Bush's war request

Fat chance. After all, Bush might call them names.

There is broader public agreement on how Congress should approach war funding. Only about a quarter of adults want Congress to fund fully the administration's $190 billion request; seven in 10 want the proposed allocation reduced, with 43 percent wanting it reduced sharply or entirely. About seven in 10 independents want Congress to cut back funds allocated for the war effort, as do nearly nine in 10 Democrats; 46 percent of Republicans agree.
