Murtha will keep saying this till the day troops do leave ( or as rummy has framed it....not brought back in) and then he will declare victory.......claiming that he was right all along.
This is the EXACT same strategy that the islamists employ.....say they will drive us out and no matter how lone we stay some of them will claim they won when we do go. Amazing feeling it must be to be making the same arguments that the islamis fanatics make!
It's really quite sad, isn't it?
