I think so, that is what the majority of the American people want and that is what they were elected to do. .

A timetable is a bad idea
However the benchmarks are a good idea.
A better bill would have said if you do not meet specific benchmarks in a timely fashion then we will withdraw.
Nobody really knows what the situation will be like in 6 days, 6 weeks, 6 months etc so a timetable is foolish and irresponsible IMHO

I think it is a bad idea to set public timetables because it provides the enemy with a viable waiting strategy. However, I also think it is a bad idea to engage in never ending wars when the people you are trying to help are not doing enough to help themselves. So it is really a Catch-22. I think timetables should be set privately with specific goals the Iraqis must meet. I think the leadership in both parties should be made aware of the timetable with the understanding that all security regarding it will be lifted at the point of deadline. I also think that it is okay to announce that timetables have been set without actually announcing what the timetable is. If the deadline passes and Iraqis are still not providing for their own security I do believe we should pull out and let the chips fall where they may. We cannot force freedom on these people and it is also looking like they will not fight for their own freedom as long as we continue to provide the majority of their defense.

Absolutely NOT! Party politics is all that plan is about. The simple truth is that just walking out of Iraq will ot solve anything.
The Liberals in this country have been burning bras for so long they have convinced themselves that the crap they spew out of their mouths is truth.
If we leave Iraq as it stands now nothing will change and this war is far from over.
The battlefront will only change locations. By fighting the fight there we avoid the battle being brought back through terrorist acts here.
For those of you who have forgotten, they flew planes into the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Are you ready to re-live that event?
The sad part is the media has poisoned the minds of so many young Americans that the patriotism has faded and we are back where we were before the towers fell.
The the liberals want is more turmoil. If they pull the troops out, we will get the turmoil.

No. The Democrats that are around now are a danger to the United States. It is one of the worst things to do. Iran and Syria are gonna move in on the weak Iraqi's and set up Hezbollah and other terrorists org. Al Queda is gonna move in and set up shop. The Iraqi Gov. is gonna do what? Prosper? Rebuild? They are besieged now and unable to control Baghdad, with our help. Take away their only help and what? Do not be surprised when we are attacked again when the next president is elected, a weak Democrat.

No. An arbitrary deadline for any war is a terrible idea. The important question to ask it why they put the deadline right before the next Presidential election.

Yes I do, he says they'll follows us, what are they going to swim over here. Iraq voted 3/4 they wanted us to leave I was always taught, you stay nowhere your not wanted. Our troops are paying for George Bush lies and Cheney's mind is gone.
He tells Bush what he wants done, Bush does whatever Cheney tells him that is his boss. Cheney couldn't be elected President, they got George Bush to steal the election but Cheney is the President. Everyone should know by now that Cheney tells him every step to take, he salutes and follows his orders. The mikes were open in error, Bush told Cheney wait and tell me what you want done after we get back in the office, someone might hear you.

No, it shows that people are sick of flag draped coffins of soldiers on Fox. Even if it's a bad idea, it's what most people want. That's democracy right there, and saying we are promoting democracy in Iraq means we are hypocrites.

No, they're catering to the anti-war people to get votes. That's the only reason. They care about the troops as much as Bush does, which is to say a lot, but they also realize the value of their sacrifice.
Withdrawing now is going to send a message to the world that anti-war people control America's agenda, that America can't prevail in a war because of its political situation. That we are a weak and incapable nation in terms of military, and that we don't finish what we start.
