"My strong preference would be to have a classified plan and a classified timetable that should be shared with Congress,"

Anything shared with Congress will stay classified until roughly 5 o'clock. Or whenever the Big Three pollute the airwaves with their "Nightly News" in your town.

A secret would last about as long as it took leaky Leahy to dial his cell phone.

These liberal clowns are so worried about their precious political careers. They're just so anxious and perturbed by criticism from their liberal base about Iraq. There isn't a single leader left in the Democrat party, and none of them have the backbone to take any political heat. They are self-focused children, anxious about themselves and their trivial political careers. If we surrender in Iraq, the diplomatic and strategic consequences will be terrible and lasting. We would lose credibility in all our foreign policy negotiations all over the world. My suggestion to the anxious congressional Dems is this: if you are too childish and you don't have the backbone to take some heat while you're in congress, then resign and start a new career in the private sector.

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

I wouldn't trust the dems. One of them would "leak" this to the NYTimes.

[Lancey Howard]

A double secret probation withdrawal date.
Just don't tell Leaky Leahy.

[KarlInOhio]

How quickly will the secret retreat date be available on leahyBay: the auction site for national security secrets.

[OldFriend]

He's got a secret! A tisket a tasket!

These people are deranged!

[syriacus]

LOL!!!! With Rockefeller around, there are no secrets.

[MortMan]

The democrats specialize in "secret plans", don't they?

[popdonnelly]

And we all know how good the Democrats are at keeping secrets.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

The Dems would just leak the date anyway.

[NavyCanDo]

What a stupid idea. Does he think all the troops and their equipment will just hop on a ship and come home all at once? In the worse laid plan (Pelosi's plan) or in the Republican plan, any pull out is done in phases over a period of time. You can't keep that kind of a secret.

[C210N]

Even if a "secret" such as this was magically kept secret, it would still be ridiculous. Over time, DBM "news" stories will appear where every reporter and his grandmother will come out with the date their "secret" Senior Administration and Senior Congressional sources, who want to remain anonymous due to the sensitive nature of this "date", are telling them.

On the other hand, if this cacaphony of dates drive the enemy insane and schizoid, perhaps I'd support it!

[3AngelaD]

This is an admission on the part of a Democrat that setting any deadline whatsoever is a very bad idea that will have disastrous consequences.

[mo]

Sure...that works...more data to trade for campaign cash!!

[hsalaw]

A public deadline would tip off the enemy, "who might just bide their time and wait for us to leave," he said. "Then you'd have chaos and mayhem and instability."

Well, he's smarter than the rest of the damn dems who don't even know THIS.

"My strong preference would be to have a classified plan and a classified timetable that should be shared with Congress," Pryor said yesterday.

How is that consistent with keeping it a secret, given how the Dems leak like sieves?

[SMARTY]

"Democrat Proposes Making Withdrawal Date Secret"

BS!!!! That idea is typical of the Liberal half-a^%ed conception of what it ethical and correct!!! I am SOOOOO sick of them.... tell me again what the meaning of 'is', is.

[sure_fine]

Democrat Proposes Making Withdrawal Date Secret


riiiiiiiiiiiiiight, uh huh

[alrea]

We know that terrorists will just keep testing by shooting children and sending bombs masquerading as children. It should only take a few weeks to figure out that the Democrats got their way.

Right?
