Voinovich Iraq plan gets critic

If you read THIS STORY in today's newspaper about Sen. George Voinovich's new plan for Iraq...



Then you might be interested to hear the following critique of it from Scott McConnell, spokesman for Americans Against Escalation in Iraq:



“Sen. Voinovich’s so-called plan is nothing more than President Bush’s failed stay-the-course strategy. The President has made it clear that he has no intention of ending the war in Iraq, so Sen. Voinovich and his colleagues must. Like all Americans, Ohioans believe it’s time to bring the troops home from Iraq, and they’re not going to stand for their Senator rubberstamping the administration’s failed policy. If Sen. Voinovich really wants to speak for his constituents, he’ll denounce Congressman Boehner’s comments that the sacrifices of our troops are a ‘small price’ to pay and vote to bring our troops safely home from Iraq.”

In my experience the words "stay-the-course" leaving one's mouth is the first sign that a person isn't to be taken seriously regarding Iraq policy due to that person having abandoned actual ideas in favor of soundbite rhetoric.
