House Passes Bill on Pullout (Plan)

The headline of the Washington Post article, House Passes Bill on Pullout should have the word Plan appended. "The House, with overwhelming, bipartisan support, voted yesterday [377-46] to give the Bush administration two months to present to Congress its planning for the withdrawal of combat forces in Iraq."

"Many Democrats were not particularly impressed either. "I don't think anybody likes it, but it does paint an important picture: Can we at least get a plan on the table?" said Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH)." Republicans said this is what the Defense Department has already been doing, but somehow after 4.5 years I'm surprised it hasn't already been done.
