Reid's actual statement the other day was:
"As far as setting a timeline, as we learned in the Balkans, that's not a wise decision, because it only empowers those who don't want us there. And it doesn't work well to do that."Better than ole Ted Kennedy's call for retreat on Sunday. How does this statement steel the spines of the Iraqis and our troops.
"Once Sunday's elections are behind us and the democratic transition is under way, President Bush should immediately announce his intention to negotiate a timetable for a drawdown of American combat forces with the Iraqi government," Mr. Kennedy said, adding that at least 12,000 "should leave at once."The whole story can be found here.
