Should troop withdrawal be delayed until at least 2009 as Rep. Bill Delahunt (D-Mass.) proposes?

Question

This statement doesn't seem to get the troops out as quickly as possible - it seems to let them hanging in Iraq indefinately

Rep. Bill Delahunt (D-Mass.), who has conducted hearings on the proposed agreements between Washington and Baghdad, said that the next administration should conduct the negotiations. "They are the ones who are going to have to live with whatever agreement is struck,"

Answer 1

I believe the next administration has already come out in favor of troop withdrawal, so I see no need to wait to begin the process.

The new administration will simply take over negotiations when the current crop of clowns leave town.
