Senate Approves Iraq TimetablePosted on Mar 27, 2007

As the legislation stands, the U.S. will have to begin a troop withdrawal within four months after the law is enacted and complete the pullout by March 31, 2008.

Sort of reminds you of Kerry’s “I voted for the supplemental before I voted against it.” Go to Kucinich.us. Read HR 1234 if you’re curious about what a real plan to end the war looks like.
