all sounds good. the timetable thing aside, he should once again re-iterate that US forces will ramp down as iraqi forces come up to speed. I think the administration has blown it over the past year with the only message being "stay the course". most americans mis-read this, and the media spins that into meaning "nothing is going to change" - which is not accurate.
I believe the administration has said that the US forces will leave as the Iraqi forces increase. It's just that the MSM doesn't cover that message.
Well if you think that it if fairly obvious you are not even trying to listen to what Bush has been saying for over a year. Maybe "Conservatives" should stop taking all their "news" start off the Dinosaur Media wire. That "Stay the course" lie is just DNC propaganda. It's sickening to hear supposedly Conservative Pundits echoing the DNC talking point as if it was reality. It is especially inexcusable for Freepers to be so ignorant of Iraq ground realities considering the dozens of posts Sandrat and Gucho post here every day about what is going on in Iraq.
All the Senate did today was try to claim credit for what the Administration is all ready DOING. Stupid move by the PR incompetent Senate Leadership. Warner and Levin should of been told to go screw themselves the leadership isn't going to play this game. Tom Delay would of done that.
