Iraq Withdrawal? Fooled Ya!

The Republicans on Tuesday surprised their Senate colleagues by agreeing to debate Sen. Russ Feingold's bill to begin troop withdrawals in 120 days.
But don't be fooled, they aren't going to support it, and neither will 24 Democratic senators who voted against the measure opening up the debate.
The R's think they can make some political capital by showing on the floor of the Senate how everything is going so well, what with violence down and some alleged political progress.
At least that's what they say.
Really, though, they just want to postpone the expected debate about the dreaded banking bill.
