Democrat Leaderships letter to President

[GAsux]

I'm not clear on what the Democrats offered solution here is? If you're claiming the mid term elections indicate the American Public doesn't support the direction of the war, I suppose that calls for a change in strategy. Adding troops is a change in strategy, but now according to Dems not the answer?

Just curious, but suppose we support the gradual but relatively rapid phased pull out the Dems are pushing. What does that mean for stability in Iraq? What message does it send to insurgent groups?

Not saying the troop increase is cause for celebration, but it doesn't seem to me that there are a lot of possible viable options here that don't carry some significant level of suck. Just my worthless opinion, but I think the days of "good" options are long gone.
