Major Roadblocks Ahead?

" It's paying for the continued US presence in Afghanistan and Iraq is proven to be a battle in its own -- Chief political correspondent Carl Cameron joins us live now from Capitol Hill to explain. Good evening Karl. I I Chris well democratic leaders had hoped to pass the president's under five billion dollar war spending bill today instead. They have an embarrassing melt down under way. Their host of problems there is no deal and right now congressional house and democratic leadership has -- on its -- House Democrats face a rebellion among anti war liberals who oppose the president's escalation in Afghanistan. As a betrayal of his promise to reduce the US military overseas. Speaker Nancy Pelosi needs anti war liberal votes now because house Republicans are threatening to withdraw their support. Because Democrats added five billion dollars in international monetary funds which the GOP opposes as a improper in a war funding bill. Pelosi had hoped to win back liberal votes by killing a provision -- the left opposes allowing the president of the Pentagon. To keep on released photos of alleged detainee abuse secret for three years unless they incite violence against US troops. Every pitcher in the simplest. Every picture is a recruiting till every pitcher is and I -- day. And they should never see the light -- day. If you -- liberals accuse the president of breaking his promise of transparency by asking the courts to keep the photos secret. The president disagrees. The most direct consequence of releasing them I believe would be the further inflame anti American opinion. And to put our troops and greater danger.

" Republicans say the commander in chief needs to get his party in line the president should call speaker Pelosi because he says that he's in favor of not releasing his father's. Second well we should pay attention to General Petraeus and general Odierno. Federal court documents obtained by Fox News include statements from general Odierno and Petraeus arguing the photos should remain secret quote. In addition to fueling civil unrest causing increased targeting of US and coalition forces and providing an additional recruiting tool to insurgents and violent extremist groups. The destabilizing effect on our partner nations cannot be underestimated."

" Democrats adjourned their meeting without a deal -- what behind closed doors. And received a conference call by speaker phone from President Obama himself who said these pictures will not be released. There could hardly be a more embarrassing setback for Democrats since they took over the congressional majority in 2006. This is a war spending bill. This is for the troops it is now on hold lawmakers may get back to work on it perhaps tonight maybe not until next week. It's also big embarrassment for the president who obviously got involved firsthand today Chris. Carl Cameron on Capitol Hill with a big."
