Pelosi likes Murtha's Strategy
House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi indicated support of Rep. Murtha plan to bring troops home.
House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday embraced a call by a prominent member of her rank-and-file to begin withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq, two weeks after she declined to endorse it.
"We should follow the lead of Congressman John Murtha, who has put forth a plan to make American safer, to make our military stronger and to make Iraq more stable," Pelosi said. "That is what the American people and our troops deserve."
This was two weeks after not endorsing a withdrawal plan. Okay, I agree in an ideal world we should never have gone into Iraq, we should also get them all home as soon as possible. That said, what is the plan to deal with the new Al Qaeda training centers to be located all over the Sunni triangle? What happens if the country divides into three completely separate political units and one of them or maybe two become major terrorist training centers? Nancy, where is that plan of yours, or anybody elses?
