The Real Deal

Unlike some of the other Republican Congressional weenies who have "broken with Bush" over Iraq, this is the real deal:

WASHINGTON - Sen. Olympia Snowe on Wednesday became the second Republican to embrace a bill ordering troops out of Iraq as President Bush's national security adviser tried to stop defections from the White House war policy.

Snowe, R-Maine, joined Sen. Gordon Smith, R-Ore., in co-sponsoring a bill that would require troops to start leaving in 120 days. The bill also would end combat by April 30, 2008.

That's one. Now we only need about fifteen more Senators from the GOP to be as definitive.

Update: Atrios reminds me to be skeptical. Signing on to one bill doesn't mean a thing unless you're willing to work at as many bills as it takes. If "that" bill goes down in flames, will she support other bills that seek withdrawal? We'll see.
