"A general time horizon" for American withdrawal from Iraq sure sounds an awful lot like movement towards Barack Obama's position:
You can't make this up... NBC's John Yang reports President Bush and Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki have agreed that a new agreement setting the parameters for US-Iraqi relations after the current UN mandate expires at the end of the year should include non-binding language--"a general time horizon" and not "an arbitrary date"--about the withdrawal of US troops.
Just imagine what he'll be able to do when he's actually in the White House...
Update: Sullivan tweaks Michael Goldfarb. "A prediction: the McCain and Obama positions on Iraq will be as minimal as McCain can make them by November."
