#1 Sen. Carl Levin, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, proposed legislation with Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I., that would order President Bush to begin pulling out troops in 120 days and end combat by April 30, 2008.

I doubt they have the votes to pass this legislation. Bush will veto the legislation. They will not be able to override the veto. However, they are taking the path of death by a thousand cuts--like during the Nixon Presidency.

#4 Order? Since when does the Legislative branch issue orders to the Executive? They can cut off funding, they can hold hearings till the cows come home, but they cannot ORDER a damn thing.

#7 Many Netters still believe that the most ideal time for Iran to have a war agz the USA is post-2008 elex, under POTUS = CO-POTUS Hillary. Its getting to the point that the only way for Radical Islam to stop or contain Dubya = US entrenchment is to attack the USG-NPE, i.e. kill Dubya + Admin. Their altern option is to attack and inflict a catastrophic, severe defeat on US milfors inside Iraq, inducing a US invasion agz Iran proepr and hopefully anti-US foreign mil intervention. *Iff Radical islam = Iran choose to wait until after Dubya leaves office, IMO they can't wait for 2012 - this means anti-US US-Iran conflict must roughly occur during the Years 2009-2010. THE LONGER THE TIME, THE MORE MOUD = IRAN RISKS ANTI-AMER AMERICAN POLS, ETC. PREFERRING THE STATUS QUO OF PERSONAL POWER-PROFIT, i.e. TO ABANDON RADICAL IRAN + ANTI-US GLOBALISM TO ITS OWN FATE.
