Reply #9: Obviously, the Baker group [View All]

[some guy]

had been sent to try to figure out a way out of Iraq, since they've been there, and have their report ready to present. But that is a seven month old decision; given the shift of Congress in the mid-terms, I am hoping (perhaps vainly or naively) that the Dems will look for an alternate solution - mostly, because I know I'm not going to much like anything this group proposes...

George McGovern and William Polk have a (probably) different proposal, and I read some where they(? - McGovern, at least) is/are planning to meet with Dems this coming week on this topic.

Good, bad or indifferent, this plan seems to pretty much get the US completely out of Iraq.

Truthout link to the McGovern-Polk plan
