I woldnt' second guess the use of these funds when we are At War. The government needs the support of us to protect us from the terrorists.

What "emergency" made this new spending necessary? if I'm not mistaken, nearly all the spending for this bill was known of or easy to anticipate ahead of time. I think COngress is just using "emergency" to avoid spending caps and soak the taxpaywer even more.
