Emergency funding bills to keep the military open while deciding other issues is a good approach.
However, no war in Iran without a separate vote of Congress should be in every bill. This is the critical Constitutional separation of powers and cannot be allowed to lapse. The Bushists have argued that the original Iraq resolution gives them everything in their wildest dreams; words in black and white have to be down on paper denying that authority.
Ordering withdrawal and the toothless departure goal are more negotiable, so Congress could play monthly games with those.
