The Bush Administration is actually looking for a way out/escape route and that has been provided by the Study Group.

Very doubtful. They will circle the wagons and figure out how to show respect to those who worked so hard for alternate suggestions to stop the uncontrolled bleeding in Iraq, and tell them to go screw themselves at the same time. Bush will refuse to acknowledge his "plan" isn't working, and we will continue on this path to more death for civilians and our soldiers in the name of something that turned out to be manipulated intelligence. Forget blame for now. Can someone, anyone, turn the light show off in Bush's head and let in some real daylight? There isn't a person outside of his inner circle, or outside of his lemming-like and eerily zombie-like rapidly diminishing Bush fan club that doesn't see the truth. We are in big trouble in the Middle East, there is a civil war raging, and our current policies are not just ineffective, but are spectacular failures. For someone who claims to have a direct line to God, he certainly is slow to wake up to what's clearly happening right in front of him. If Bush, as he certainly will, rejects their suggestions out of hand, he better have a pretty damn good plan of his own to suggest in its place. If the American people and the rest of the world have to hear "stay the course" or we can't "cut and run" for much longer he's going to start seeing the same type of demonstrations we saw in the 60's and early 70's over Vietnam. Considering alternatives to this mess he has created is hardly cutting and running. It's intelligence and desperation hard at work to try and give this sorry excuse for a President a clue.

Why should they?, It said almost exactly what the original plan was. A new plan would have helped but instead it says what they want the outcome to be. Who doesn't want the troops home by 2008? Who does want less deaths? Who doesn't think things have taken a bad turn? Well, duh! The president knew all of this & has been trying to come up with a plan that works, doesn't require a cut & run leaving our heroes death's to be useless, & allows the Iraqi democracy to survive. That's right it is no easy task or quick answer. However, a country that has won against a larger superior area to earn its freedom, survived a Civil War, WWI, WWII & other wars can surely have the grit required to back our military in an honorable homecoming after achieving our purpose. No, it is not easy for me to say as my son is a US Army Ranger & in the most danger. I love democracy & the USA.
I am not a "neo-con", but I am an American.

No. He won't. He began with some enthusiasm approximately it yet has now back away and could strongly reject any suggestion to shrink troops. playstation : To the answerer who reported he already has taken steps to conform with this checklist. This, IMHO, is thoroughly misguided. the launch would be released on Wednesday. He won't be able to respond publicly or do something publicly till then, no matter how a good number of the checklist is leaked beforehand.

Bush will not - he never changes his mind. Once he adopts a stance he goes down with it even if it cost him an election or the lives of others.
Those are not the traits of a statesman, a leader or the matured.
Look at it this way - his term has limits though he has more than ample time to do more damage at least he knows we - the American people, do not approve.

He probably will agree with some of their stances, but not most. As if this "Iraq Study Group" could give any real advice anyway.

They are burning the midnight oil, trying to figure out how to get around it and not have a public uproar. I don't think that report had anything in it the American people didn't already know or think. Those neocons are a stubborn bunch.

Right!

I was all ready to accept it, but some of it is ridiculous and some of it is already being done. I am a conservative not a neocon, so my answers may not matter.

I don't think so. I sure hope not. Anyone who thinks we should be talking to Iran & Syria should not be taken seriously.
