The Democrats' Plan: Strong. Tough. Baffling, Even To Themselves.
Leadership:
David Obey remarked the other day that "idiot liberals" discussing the Democrats' plan don't even understand what it is.
I guess he just proved his point, though perhaps not in the manner he would have preferred.
I suppose it's an improvement over the Murtha Plan, which, as far as I could tell, proposed that terrorism was so bad now in Iraq that American troops should "strategically redeploy" to neighboring Okinawa, only to return to fight if there were signs of terrorism in Iraq, which, oddly enough, are the very signs compelling them to leave in the first place.
PS: Remember how the Democrats kept selling their "over-the-horizon strategic redeployment" non-plan plans as a way to get troops out of Iraq and into Afghanistan (and Pakistan), where the "real terrorists were," and where "Osama bin Forgotten" was?
Isn't it funny that all of these various and sundry plans seem to omit any, you know, plans to commit additional troops to "the forgotten war" in Afghanistan?
And isn't even funnier that not a single MSM reporter has asked them about this discrepancy?
