“yesterday President Bush called the timetable a ``prescription for chaos and confusion.'' That timetable was a responsible road map out of Iraq. The President has caused chaos and confusion for 4 long years, replacing one general after another when the general disagrees with the policy. What has the President given us? He's given us the largest deficit in history. He's cut back from domestic programs to pay for this war. He's weakened our military. Eighty-eight percent of the National Guard is not prepared to go to war. The Army is strained to a breaking point. He's neglected our own people, and he has destroyed Iraq's economy, their social fabric. People are leaving Iraq, fleeing from the chaos the President has caused for 4 long years. We had a responsible road map. The President should have signed it.”
