The Demos haven’t quit....it’s part of their plan....

You mean they planned to put a time line surrender in the first bill knowing that they will be forced to remove it from a second bill?

I think you are correct. The Dem’s are going to attempt to reach their goal by gradually pushing the envelope. This bill will pull a time line but will introduce penalties if Iraq does not meet certain deadline.
