Bush blinks. Pentagon proposes timetable for partial withdrawal from Iraq

Excuse me? Within days of Murtha proposing a withdrawal, and he's eviscerated for suggesting it, Bush is now floating a partial withdrawal?

I'm sorry, but I thought telegraphing our moves in advance only emboldened the terrorists. Now the terrorists know to wait until next fall, when we have fewer troops, to then launch their attacks. Not to mention, the article goes on about how this isn't a political move, it's being done based on the military need. Uh huh. Less than 24 hours after the Iraqi government told us to get the hell out and, by the way, they're now saying our soldiers are legitimate targets, Bush suddenly pulls a partial withdrawal out of his ass. It must have been the 3 GIs killed in the past 24 hours that told the Pentagon things are looking up, that's why they're suddenly talking about a withdrawal.

The worst president ever just blinked.
