[O29] Troops out NOW or "at some unspecified date in the future to be determined according to the whim of Congress"?

[ATMRRM at aol.com]

I agree with Keith and John Harris.

I don't know what antiwar movement Gary's referring to, but for 3-4 years I 
marched and worked in a mass antiwar movement against the Vietnam War with the 
call for OUT NOW!!   I still have my pins!!!

For us (O29 coalition), to take a position so that the antiwar movement can 
be more palatable to the Democrats, is not only pathetic, it is   irresponsible 
and repugnant. Why would the antiwar movement concede to a time table that 
would result in the deaths of more Iraqi women and children as well as more US 
troops?

LeBlanc writes: "It is up to us to turn the growing opposition to Bush into a 
massive movement to set the date and bring the troops home now."

There's only one date that allows for us to bring the troops home now: NOW, 
not later at a date to be determined by Congress.

To concede anything less than OUT NOW, sounds like "a little bit more of this 
war is okay."   How many more months are okay?   How many more deaths 
tolerable?    How much more fiscal havoc on our schools, elderly, veterans and poor 
is reasonable collateral damage?
