Default Dems Push for End date of Iraq War
Dems labor for sure majority on pullout

By DAVID ESPO, AP Special Correspondent

WASHINGTON - On the eve of a critical vote, House Democrats labored Thursday to lock down a majority behind a Sept. 1, 2008, deadline for the withdrawal of U.S. combat troops from Iraq, the sternest test yet for a determined new majority eager to challenge President Bush.

"If it comes off, it's a superb accomplishment," said Rep. Barney Frank (news, bio, voting record), D-Mass., as the party's leaders cajoled liberals who want an even faster timetable and moderates fearful of tying the hands of the commander in chief and generals in the field.
Sounds like a bad idea, naming an official end date for the war. It almost gaurantees a failure, don't you think?

Personally, I want to see our troops come home, but at the same time, it would be nice to see a decisive victory in Iraq.
