Bush Unveils New Iraq Strategy Document: "'We expect, but cannot guarantee that our force posture will change over the next year, as the political process advances and Iraqi security forces grow and gain experience,' the report said. 'While our military presence may become less visible, it will remain lethal and decisive, able to confront the enemy wherever it may organize.'"
An exit strategy? Finally. If only they'd have done this months ago they would have saved themselves from the Murtha effect. But wait? Is he talking about drawing down the troops? Didn't they say that would only embolden the enemy? And then later in the AP article Laura Bush is quoted as wanting the troops home as soon as possible. So, according to the administration she's calling for immediate withdrawal. Should we now say that Laura is following the Michael Moore wing?
Suddenly their arguments seem a little weak, as they turn around and do exactly what we've been asking of them.
