A Subtly Different Question

Dan Froomkin, in his column today mentions a question from Bill Plante of CBS News, made today after Bush's brief statement about the fourth anniversary of the War in Iraq. "After his emotionless statement, Bush turned and walked quickly out the room, ignoring a question by CBS News' Bill Plante about how much longer he was willing to wait for the Iraqis to take control."

Perhaps the question shouldn't be how long we should wait for the Iraqi government to take control, but take Bush to task about when his Administration will be willing to relinquish control of Iraq. 150,000 troops on the ground, after all, tend to enforce their own kind of political edict.
