Raleigh - Congressman Walter Jones said Thursday he has about 50 co-sponsors on a joint resolution that calls on President Bush to announce by year's end a plan for withdrawal from Iraq.
The resolution — introduced in June by Jones, another Republican and two Democrats — calls on the president to begin executing the withdrawal by Oct. 1, 2006. It does not set an end date.
"I think that people have finally understood what we're doing," Jones said after a meeting at the N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, noting that people have mistakenly thought the resolution was binding.
The initial resolution sponsors are Ron Paul, R-Texas, who voted against the war, and two Democrats who have opposed it, Reps. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio and Neil Abercrombie of Hawaii. Jones said the new supporters include five Republicans.
It is the first such resolution put forth by lawmakers from both parties, although an overwhelming number of Democrats and six House Republicans voted in 2002 against sending troops to Iraq.

I bet we could name the 50
just in time for elections.
Great comfort to our enemies.
I'm with you. These flippin politicians love to kill our troops by ramping up their last gasp of fighting. Kerry / Fonda 101 mentality. Pisses me off. Even some libs I know realize that we should stay until "the task is achieved."
And we pay these assbreath "legislators" $150+k a year?
Someone, please give me a barf bag.
Why wait ?
Why do the surrender monkeys give a date in the future, why not say immediately ??
Oh boy, Neil BLABERcrombie from Hawaii.......I'm really shaking in my boots that these "Leaders" will effect anything.
He's already said that. I don't know how those people are so stupid as to not realize that this IS the exit plan!
Round up the usual traitors..er suspects.
President Bush has made his withdrawal strategy clear on many occasions. He or we can't help it if the anti-America Bush-haters can't understand plain english.
Ignore these silly, bloviating fools in Armani suits; '06 means every last one of the sorry lot is up for another term, and they are only going with popular myth that the war is losing support here at home.
The rhetoric will become even more inane than it already is as we approach election day, and the cowards that can't even trust the power of gerrymandering begin to sweat being beaten at the polls and losing the perks and status they so easily become accustomed to.
You see, a politician, by his or her own nature, shown by their behavior, and no matter how many times they have pulled the wool over the eyes of their constituents, is basically a cowardly, self-loathing, incompetent, and insecure piece of floating, reeking excrement with nothing to offer except whatever they think the peeps want to hear.
Elected cowards.
Ha,nice try ap,support is solid for our troops and their mission!
This headline reflects the views of rinos and dems,nice try though.
The puke club. Shame Teddy hickup can't get em all assembled on some cruise ship then a Mark 84 Harpoon accidently goes astray during a training mission.
The only point I will agree with you on is our borders. We do need to fix the problem.
Sheesh...I can picture how things would have gone if these idiots had been in charge during World War II.
