Two views of the same thing...:

1) WASHINGTON (AP) - Epitomizing growing pressure in Congress against President Bush's Iraq war buildup, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday that the conflict there "is not an obligation of the American people in perpetuity." Pelosi said Bush "has dug a hole so deep he can't even see the light on this. It's a tragedy. It's a stark blunder."

2) TALLIL AIR BASE, Iraq (AP) - Gen. George Casey, the top American commander in Iraq, said Friday that some of the extra troops that President Bush ordered to Baghdad could begin leaving by late summer if conditions allow. "I think it's probably going to be the summer, late summer, before you get to the point where people in Baghdad feel safe in their neighborhoods," Casey told reporters at a news conference with visiting Defense Secretary Robert Gates.
