U.S. Won't Withdraw From Iraq

The President stands by his guns, and the oppressed people of the Middle East:

Under intense pressure to change course, President Bush on Tuesday rejected suggestions Iraq has fallen into civil war and vowed not to pull U.S. troops out "until the mission is complete."

..."There's one thing I'm not going to do, I'm not going to pull our troops off the battlefield before the mission is complete," Bush declared in his speech. There are about 140,000 U.S. forces in Iraq.

No matter who's in control of Congress, the President is still the President. Republicans tried to usurp executive powers in the 90's and failed. So will Democrats likely stumble against our Constitution's separation of powers.
