Shelby Takes Hybrid Position on Iraq
Alabama Senator Richard Shelby gave tacit support to Sen. Warner’s proposal to remove 5,000 troops by Christmas yesterday.
On CNN’s “Late Edition,†Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.), came close to endorsing Sen. Warner’s call for a very modest withdrawal of 5,000 troops by Christmas.
“Sen. Warner is on the right track,†Shelby said, adding later: “We will be withdrawing some troops.â€
But he added that Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, will be the driving force behind troop levels.
