Anyone else see that Senator Heinz-Kerrywill introduce legislation this week to pull the majority of troops out of Iraq by the end of 2006. (see story: http://www.upi.com/SecurityTerrorism...2-123823-4136r)
While it is certainly reasonable policy to talk about an overall plan and defining touchpoints as to when x% of troops can be drawn, but isn't it a bit reckless for Kerry and Murtha and their pals to be setting arbitrary deadlines? Seems like a losing strategy all around, although maybe Kerry is more proficient with losing strategies than naught. Maybe he should just convene a conference in Paris and start negotiating the US surrender on whatever terms the mullahs in Iran want.

Often, after smart dinner parties, Picasso is said to have wheeled out
Guernica for his guests to enjoy.
Onn one particular occassion, in 1945, in an interestng coupling as Picasso was wont to orchestrate, both David Llyod George and Sir Winnie Churchill were in attendancec at the Picasso home. Chucrchill had just been defeated by Atleee in the first post—war election in Britian adn was fluctuating between being blind drunk and rampaginly angry. At one Goerge and Picasso ended up adjacent to each other and were beseiged by Françoise Gilot to pose for a photto. As he was moving into place for one of the photos, Churchill drunbkenly slipped and fell onto George, who quipped,
"Get the hell off of me you political has-been"
George’s attendant reseated the doddering old leftist, and mumbled an apology to Churchill, at which point Churchill exclaimed,
"Let Atlee try a best two out of three'"
and then he promptly puked on Gilot's Chanel outfit
