The Senate has passed a bill to fund President Barack Obama's troop surge in Afghanistan.

The almost $60 billion measure passed by a bipartisan 67-28 tally.

More than half of the funding would go to the Pentagon, mostly to support Obama's influx of 30,000 troops to Afghanistan.

There's also $5 billion to replenish disaster aid accounts, as well as funding for Haitian earthquake relief and aid to U.S. allies in the war on terror.

The bill includes legislation to allow the Coast Guard to receive advances of up to $100 million from the oil spill liability trust fund to pay for the federal response to spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

The House has yet to approve the war funding measure, which faces opposition from many anti-war lawmakers. Subscribe to *You Gotta Be Shitting Me*

How obscene. The 67 "For" Senators and all the Representative who will vote "For" funding this undeclared war should be put on the Ashcanistan fields with rifles and let them fight whoever they think needs to be killed.

How obscene.

Congress refused to do their duty in 1950 and nearly every president since has taken advantage of that fact, to wage war in one form or another.

The Supreme Court of the time ruled this travesty legal.
