CBC: Bush Promises to Veto Bill... great quick read!

Canadian Broadcasting Corporation: Bush promises to veto bill calling for troop pullout

The title proves best summary for the article.

A main subtitle below is written in red, I believe because the web site is geared towards fast-news, considering it isn't even meant to be online news, but TV and Radio for Canada. It caught my attention.

First paragraph again gives a more-specific explanation of the main player of the article: "President George W. Bush", and explains why he is the main role of the bill (able to veto).

Second paragraph gives the bottom line: President Bush will not allow senate to pass troop withdrawl bill. It also gives the place (of his speech, the main source of article).

Third paragraph explains the opposition: "The Democrats"

4-5th paragraphs detail the President's counter-opposition to the House's and Senate's efforts.

In the 6-7th paragraphs, the article quotes the bill's relation to the audience: "If Congress... the American people will..."

8-9th paragraphs explain what is at stake for the nation of America: "... put our own security at risk."

The 10-11th paragraphs explain the threat to the Democrat Party politicians' cause, ultimately highlighting the Senate Majority Leader (head opposition to President Bush on this issue).

I thought this was a great issue explaining in detail of the President's message, and the indirect (un-quoted) rebuttal from his opposition, the Democrats who support the Senate bill.

I believe the President is commander in chief, which means he makes the head military decisions, such as troop withdrawl... no matter how much I distaste his running of the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. I believe HE (yes, the President has the only Constitutional authority) should set a timetable, but not totally re-deploy troops out of the Middle East, but rather keep them closeby to be sure if the Iraqi security is at risk (given sufficient evidence), then American forces would help re-stabilize.
But doesn't this remind us to vote a President into office who has military experience? duh...
