Warner treading the line... [View All]

[Flabbergasted]

He's not necessarily "supporting Bush"

He's not necessarily "not supporting the troops"

He is saying that it's Iraq's Fault...

However if you asked him "for what?" He would not necessarily have an answer because everyone knew it would end up like this and there is no room in the Conservative mindset for reconciliation.

Absolute Pure idiocy

Republicans are in big trouble.




Warner: Bush Should Bring Troops Home

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush should start bringing home some troops by Christmas to show the Baghdad government that the U.S. commitment in Iraq is not open-ended, a prominent Republican senator said Thursday.

The move puts John Warner, a former Navy secretary and one-time chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, at odds with the president, who says conditions on the ground should dictate deployments.

Warner, R-Va., said the troop withdrawals are needed because Iraqi leaders have failed to make substantial political progress, despite an influx of U.S. troops initiated by Bush this year.

The departure of even a small number of U.S. service members -- perhaps 5,000 of the 160,000 troops in Iraq -- would send a powerful message throughout the region that time was running out, Warner said.
