Thumbs down Bush backs pause in withdrawals from Iraq

"The president also announced he would reduce combat tours from 15 to 12 months, citing the heavy strain on troops and their families.

The shortened tours would apply only to troops deployed on or after August 1 and would not cut back tours for those currently in Iraq."

So, leave the soliders in theater, but reward the incoming with a shorter tour. That stinks to high heaven, it should be the other way around.
