President Bush made a surprise eight-hour visit to Iraq on Monday, emphasizing security gains, sectarian reconciliation and the possibility of a troop withdrawal, thus embracing and pre-empting this month’s crucial Congressional hearings on his Iraq strategy.Y'hear that?! He actually said a troop withdrawal is possible!
Oh, except he didn't give any indication of how many would be withdrawn.
Or when.
And his circumstances are the same vague "we'll stand down when they stand up" crap they've been saying the whole time.
Huh. Maybe it's just another way of saying that he wants us to be there forever, or at least until someone else takes office.
Ah well, sorry to get your hopes up.
