No, the executive branch proposes, the legislative branch disposes. The WH proposed supporting troops with additional funds. 78 senators agreed with the WH. Kerry did not.

Glad to see you paid that much attention in 8th grade Civics (although apaprently not to the part about the President's veto power or his role as the leader of one of our Nation's political parties ). Now, let's see if you can move beyond it.
You may not have read the last series of posts to which you responded. Let me correct your post:
"The WH proposed supporting troops with additional funds. Kerry and others proposed supporting the troops with additional funds from another source. The WH threatened to veto the funding bill if the Senate passed Kerry's measure. 78 Senators ultimately voted for the WH bill. Kerry stuck to his guns, and did not agree with the WH on the source of the funding for the troops."
That's honest, but makes a lousy political ad.
