If you watched the proceedings of the house on live TV, you would not have made this comment:

"Congress doesn't want to pull out of Iraq as soon as possible, they want to finish the job. Murtha can be wrong, that is in the realm of possibility, don't you know."

The Duncan Hunter resolution that the House voted on, I think, said nothing about pulling out of Iraq after doing the job. It only said "pull out of Iraq immediately."

Since you raise the issue of "finishing the job", Murtha has asked Bush to be very clear about what "finishing the job" means. Things like how many batallions of the armed forces of Iraq are we going to train, how many police batallions are we going to train and by what date etc. etc. After they are trained, Murtha has said then we need to start start to reduce our forces. Not send our forces to march into Syria or Iran. Murtha has stated very clearly that we need around 400,000 troops on the ground there and not a meagre 150,000.
