Here it is: a statement from a member of James Baker’s commission:
•“I think the big question is whether we can come up with something before it’s too late,” one member of the commission said late last month, after the group met in Washington. “There’s a real sense that the clock is ticking, that Bush is desperate for a change, but no one in the White House can bring themselves to say so with this election coming. It’s a race between our political calendar and the Iraqis.”

So, America’s troops are being exploited and used for the benefit of Republican votes. Bush and the Republicans know that the troops are coming out, but they will leave them there to be injured and killed rather than risk losing votes.
Is this what republicans and conservatives mean by supporting our troops?
