GW Ignores Senate Republicans on Iraq too -

[Joeychgo]

June 26 (Bloomberg) -- Bush administration officials today pleaded for more time for the president's Iraq strategy to work as two Republican senators called for a change of course.

~~~~~~~~~~

Senator Richard Lugar, the top Republican on the Foreign Relations Committee, and Senator George Voinovich, another member of the panel, added new pressure on Bush by saying the current strategy isn't bringing results.

Lugar said in a Senate speech last night that ``the costs and risks of continuing down the current path outweigh the potential benefits that might be achieved.''

``Persisting indefinitely with the surge strategy will delay policy adjustments that have a better chance of protecting our vital interests over the long term,'' said Lugar, a six-term senator from Indiana.

He was followed today by Voinovich, a second-term senator from Ohio, who told reporters that while he didn't favor a ``precipitous'' withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq, he backs the beginning of a redeployment ``so people know indeed we are disengaging.''

GW Ignores Senate Republicans on Iraq too. !!!!!

Gee, what a story. How profound.:shifty:

Our Commander in Chief listens to his commanders-on-the-ground instead of some politicians in Washington.

It was so much more comforting when Clinton changed policy on a monthly basis after the latest CNN/Gallop poll came out.

Thank God we have George Bush in office right now with Fred Thompson following after him in 2008.

Democrats will unwittingly help to destroy this Country if left to their own devices.

The flaw in your last 2 statements is that Bush, while standing firm around the world in Iraq, is willingly allowing a foreign invasion of MILLIONS of people on our own soil. Democrats are not destroying this country UNWITTINGLY. They know EXACTLY what they are doing. And Bush is helping them.

I don't thank God for Bush right now. I pray that his goal of changing the face of our nation FAILS.

Let's give the gays New Hampshire and Frisco and the Mexicans can have Texas and the rest of California.

Bush was lied to by the Clinton administration regarding the free trade agreement Clinton signed. That's why the legislation sucks.

You seem to forget something --

GW is just some politicial in Washington too.

Tell me brian, what exactly it is that makes you think GW walks on water? Is there no fault with this guy in your mind? Even FOSSTEN can admit the guy is an idiot on some things.

Well, We agree on this one at least. I havent heard anything regarding immigration that impresses me. Why is it that the lawbreaker, the illegal immigrant, faces no penalty if caught here?
