What's reasonable and responsible about genocide?

I'd love to see Sen. Levin's plan which would have a "reasonable date of completion" for handing off duties to the Iraqi's in less than 15 months. I love that the Democrats have started using words like "reasonable" and "responsible" to refer to their unreasonable, irresponsible dates for surrender.

GOP Offers New Iraq Plan
ABC News

A small group of Republicans facing election fights next year have rallied around war legislation they think could unite the GOP: call for an end to U.S. combat in Iraq, but wait until President Bush is out of office.

The legislation was deemed essentially a nonstarter by Democrats Friday and underscored the difficulty Congress has in striking a bipartisan compromise on the war. What attracts democrats has repelled Republicans and vice versa, making it impossible so far to find a middle ground.

"To try to put this off until after the election, rather than a reasonable period of completion, I believe would be to unnecessarily introduce a political element to what is a bipartisan effort," said Sen. Carl Levin, the Democratic Chairman of the Armed Services Committee.

The proposal, by Sen. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, would require that Bush change the misison of U.S. troops from combat to primarily support roles, such as training Iraqi security forces and protecting U.S. infrastructure in Iraq. His legislation would set a gol of completing such a mission transition within 15 months.
