At Last! Republican Demands Plan

Senator Richard Lugar (R-Indiana) believes that the president should consult Congress before increasing troops in Iraq. He also befieves that we should have a 'clear policy' on what is those troops are expected to do.
Lugar, outgoing chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said that the committee, under the under the new leadership of Senator Joe Biden (D-Delaware) will hold a 'retreat' to discuss the Iraq 'situation'.
"He said if Bush reaches out to Congress about his plans, hearings before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee could become 'well-informed, sophisticated situations' rather than a 'lynching party'."
That doesn't sound likely, but let's give the guy a chance. After all, he's only had six years to prove that looking like a chimp doesn't mean he is one.
