House okays Iraq war funds without withdrawal date

UPDATE BELOW

“Bowing to President Bush, the Democratic-controlled House reluctantly approved fresh billions for the Iraq war on Thursday, minus the troop withdrawal timeline that drew his earlier veto,” MSNBC reports.

The vote was 280-142.

UPDATE

The Senate, where the vote was 80-14, follows suit. Among the nays, Clinton, Dodd and Obama.
