I would have voted against this if I was in the Congress or Senate and would have only voted for a bill with the timeline. In all honesty though Scoonie hit the nail head on. The Dems were really caught between a rock and a hard place. they could have kept giving Bush a bill with a timeline and just hoped either he would eventually gave or enough Republicans would jump on, or run out of $$ and hope at that point Bush does the right thing and brings them home. problem is, if that happened, could we count on Bush actually bring them home. Would he keep them there & blame the Dems for not funding them or would he uptick this debacle as bit further and Iran-Contranize the funding. The Dems did gave and they really needed to show more backbone, but fact of the matter is they don't have enough GOP votes and/or their majority isn't large enough to do what really needs to be done with Bush in the White House.
