In short, Senate Republicans have agreed to 'talk' about Iraq. They haven't (at least as far as I could see) agreed to do anything else. It's a start and that's important.
The politico in me is watching for the election year ploy.
Yup. The start's important, as is the entire process. Ploy it may be, but sooner or later something's gotta give. Straws that break camel's backs and all...
they've agreed to talk because they think they can "win" the discussion. I still find that disheartening, perhaps even more disheartening than them thinking talk is too dangerous for their position. Here's hoping it winds up being productive!
