Tom Vilsack calls for cutting funding and ending the war in Iraq

'08 Contender on Iraq: 'Cut Off Funding'

"Those in Congress who voted for the war, those in Congress who have voted to continue the war, and those in Congress who have funded the war, can surely vote to end the war," Vilsack told members of the Democratic National Committee during the second day of a presidential candidates' forum in Washington.

"Congress has the constitutional responsibility and a moral duty to cut off funding for the status quo," said Vilsack. "Not a cap — an end. Not eventually — immediately."
