Dems Push Legislation To Withdraw Troops By '08 Fall
Associated Press:
In a direct challenge to President Bush, House Democrats are advancing legislation requiring the withdrawal of U.S. combat troops from Iraq by the fall of next year.
Democratic officials who described the measure said the timetable would be accelerated -- to the end of 2007 -- if the government of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki does not meet goals for providing Iraq's security.
