Bill Nelson actually said...

Let me tell you about a conversation I had with our Ambassador Khalilzad and General Casey. They both said--this was back before Christmas--that they would not support a surge unless there is a specific plan for success, and the ambassador even said, and I quote, that he did not want more American kids wasting their lives unless he had 'a high degree of confidence in the plan.'

Context

Discussing a conversation about the surge strategy in Iraq.
