I'm touched by the notion that Bush really wants to stay in Iraq longer to do the job right, but the views of people like those who post on that site are pressuring him to set a bogus earlier date, which he will then slide. That must be how Republicans imagine a bi-partisan foreign policy would work.

I may be wrong, but I don't believe there is a bi-partisan element required in occupying a foreign country. Rather, all decisions rest at the executive branch, subject to the powers of the purse. If congress wanted to have some say, it should have written that condition into the appropriations bill, no?
