Iraq withdrawl bill passes through house

July 13, 2007

Today the house passed a bill calling for withdrawal of most troops by April 2008.  There is no way that Bush will sign it but it is good that they did what they could.  They need to keep pressure on him and the people involved so maybe after September they can get a 2/3 majority to overrule any presidential veto.

I don’t believe in a full withdrawal because we need to keep a presence as a base of operations to keep terrorist groups from getting too entrenched and to keep the Iraqi police forces in check but I think we should let the factions in Iraq knock them selves out for a while.
