I do not want a phase withdrawl,

I want a immediate withdrawl!
Democrats poised to take control of Congress said Sunday that they would press to begin a phased U.S. military withdrawal from Iraq within four to six months, part of an agenda aimed at overhauling key aspects of U.S. policy in the Middle East.

"First order of business is to change the direction of Iraq policy," said Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.), who is in line to become chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee next year when Democrats become the majority party in both chambers of Congress.

Senior White House officials countered that setting timetables for U.S. troop withdrawals would weaken the Iraq government and embolden insurgents, but they acknowledged a need for fresh ideas on Iraq and expressed a new willingness to negotiate with Democrats on an array of foreign policy issues.

White House Chief of Staff Josh Bolten indicated that the president would block legislation calling for a scheduled withdrawal.
Dubya, the Iraqi government has already weakened. Around 2,860 American soldiers are dead. Between 200,000 and 600,000 Iraqi civilians are dead as a result of this war. The more we stay in Iraq, the more embolden the insurgents are. Negotiation is not an option. We have wrecked this country long enough, it's time to leave Iraq. Not in six months, not in three months, not in one month, and not in two weeks. NOW!
