HJR 55 - Homeward Bound Resolution
The TRUTH. In Cindy Sheehan's words, "The bill is a good first step to ensuring that families here in America and all over the world do not have to suffer needless death in war. However, I would like the withdrawal to begin tomorrow." www.gsrp.org

I've got sorry news for some of you, HJR 55 is NO DIFFERENT than what Al Franken is talking about, or John Kerry, or Wes Clark, or Paul Hackett, or any of a number of Democrats that you're firing at. A handful, Lieberman and perhaps Hillary & Biden, support a "winning" strategy.

What The Bill Says:

SEC. 4. REQUIREMENTS TO IMPLEMENT POLICY.

The President shall implement the policy expressed in section 3 by--

(1) taking all necessary steps to ensure the completion of Iraq's political transition to a constitutionally elected government by December 31, 2005, as called for in United Nations Security Council Resolution 1546 (2004), which was supported by the United States;

(2) establishing a plan for the withdrawal of all United States Armed Forces from Iraq limited only by steps to ensure the safety of such Armed Forces;

(3) establishing a plan for a transition of responsibility for internal security activities to the military forces of the Iraqi Government and a transition of United States military personnel to an advisory and support role;

(4) accelerating the training and equipping of the military and security forces of the Iraqi Government; and

(5) taking all appropriate measures to account for any missing members of the United States Armed Forces or United States citizens in Iraq prior to completion of the withdrawal of United States Armed Forces from Iraq.
