Troop levels in Iraq would remain nearly the same through 2008 as they have been through most of the five years of war there, under plans presented to President Bush on Monday by the senior American commander and the top American diplomat in Iraq, senior administration and military officials said. – NY Times
As with most adventures in his life, President Bush is going to leave this mess for someone else to clean up.
