Better Late Than Never-Republican Senators Lugar & Voinovich Bail from Bush’s Botched Iraq Policy.

“Sen. George Voinovich said Tuesday the U.S. should begin pulling troops out of Iraq, joining Richard Lugar as the second Republican lawmaker in as many days to suggest President Bush's war strategy is failing. . . . Sen. Richard Lugar, R-Ind. . . , a senior Republican and a reliable vote for President Bush on the war, said Monday that Bush's Iraq strategy was not working and that the U.S. should downsize the military's role. . . .The Ohio senator's remarks followed similar comments by Lugar, R-Ind., the previous night. The two GOP senators previously had expressed concerns about Bush's decision to send 30,000 extra troops to Iraq in a massive U.S.-led security push in Baghdad and Anbar province.” Another GOP Senator Urges Pullout By ANNE FLAHERTY
