#1 Murtha's proposal reminds me of Nixon's "Peace with Honor" withdrawl from Vietnam. Didn't work then and won't work now.

#3 I TOLD YOU SO!!!

This article is BULLSH%T! It says:
John Murtha, a Pennsylvania Democrat, introduced a resolution aimed at pushing political moderates to oppose the war in Iraq. His plan called for "redeploying" U.S. troops out of Iraq over the next six months, leaving a "rapid reaction force" in the region and then pursuing U.S. goals through "diplomatic" means. It was a crafted political proposal that was meant to be an alternative to "staying the course" while not calling for outright withdrawal.

Here is the actual wording:

Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that:

Section 1. The deployment of United States forces in Iraq, by direction of Congress, is hereby terminated and the forces involved are to be redeployed at the earliest practicable date. blah, blah, blah.

IS HEREBY TERMINATED. IS HEREBY TERMINATED. IS HEREBY TERMINATED. That means what it means. I told you this was how they would play it.
