In a direct challenge to President Bush, House Democrats unveiled legislation Thursday requiring the withdrawal of U.S. combat troops from Iraq by the fall of next year.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the deadline would be added to legislation providing nearly $100 billion the Bush administration has requested for fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan.

She told reporters the measure would mark the first time the new Democratic-controlled Congress has established a "date certain" for the end of U.S. combat in the four-year-old war that has claimed the lives of more than 3,100 U.S. troops.

I swear an articulate president could make political mincemeat out of their insanity.

I wish Bush would have taken one of those August vacations to do a toastmasters course or work with a coach.

I thought it used to be March 2008.

It's definitely a politically motivated deadline that has no bearing on our national interest, but nonetheless, the moonbats are going to go batty over that very extended deadline. Look for the moonbats to start drawing blood from the DEMs.
