I can hardly wait to see what they come up with this month. Bet me they’ll go along with whatever Shitforbrains wants……including the extra billions.
President Bush’s strategy in Iraq isn’t working, a Democratic congresswoman said Saturday as she repeated calls to start withdrawing U.S. troops.
Rep. Jan Schakowsky addresses the “Take Back America” conference last year in Washington D.C.
Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Illinois, who visited Iraq with a congressional delegation in August, delivered her party’s weekly radio address.
She said this year’s buildup in U.S. troops “failed to achieve its main goal — reducing the violence so that progress could be made on key political benchmarks.”
Schakowsky said Gen. David Petraeus, commander of U.S. forces in the Iraq war, told the delegation that the United States will be in Iraq for another nine or 10 years. “That was not the timetable I nor most Americans had in mind,” the congresswoman said.
