It shows the Democrats are VERY WORRIED about potential success in Iraq - and want to try to ensure failure.
Absolutely!
They see the writing on the wall. A drawdown of ground troops will soon put the dims and the MSM in the position of having nothing to carp about.
The vote on Dec 15 will establish the first Democracy in the ME, and it will serve as Kryptonite to the other despots in the region.
A drawdown will also serve to unite Iraqis against the insurgency, as expelling the infidel will no longer be a cause the enemy can claim.
