Statement of The Honorable Mike Doyle Reaction to Iraq Study Group Report
December 6, 2006
A comprehensive bipartisan examination of President Bush’s policies in Iraq is long overdue, but the Iraq Study Group has finally provided one. I am grateful to the Iraq Study Group members for their integrity and commitment to public service.
The Iraq Study Group’s report has confirmed what I’ve said from the beginning – namely, that the President’s Iraq policies are undermining, rather than promoting, our homeland security and foreign policy goals. The Iraq Study Group’s report supports the position that I have held for a long time – the redeployment of most of our troops out of Iraq over a relatively short period of time. It’s certainly a step in the right direction.
The release of this report provides an important opportunity for changing our failed policies in Iraq, and I hope that the President will take the Iraq Study Group’s report seriously.
