US to withdraw from Iraq

...in 2008, if Bush doesn't veto the bill which passed the Senate today, and actually follows through on it. I'd say there's as much chance of that happening as us seeing Dion lead the PQ in the next Quebec election.

But it is still nice to see the Senate continue to put more pressure on Bush, even if it's simply a non-binding symbolic resolution. However, I really find it insane how they force so many different resolutions into one. But I guess it makes sense to have a timeline for withdrawing, more money for Iraq and Afghanistan, more money for marines, money to track down sex offenders, and money for spinach farmers all in one. I mean, they're all related, right?
