The criticism follows Mr. Bush's announcement of a "major strategic shift" that includes suspending troop withdrawals after July. He says this would allow senior commander General David Petraeus to assess the next step in Iraq.
But his opponents say the people want answers from this president, now. The decision to halt withdrawals means the US presence in Iraq is likely to last well beyond January 2009, when Mr. Bush will leave office and whoever wins the November elections will take over.
Well they are right, aren’t they? He cannot take a decision the next president will be forced to honor against her/his policy!
