Letter: Exit strategy should be our top priority

Wednesday, April 12, 2006 | 7:37 a.m.

The Bush doctrine of pre-emptive wars has been a disaster in Iraq - making America and the world less safe.

Instead of a public relations campaign, the president needs to come up with an exit strategy with a timeline to bring our troops home.

Unfortunately, U.S. troops' presence helps fuel the insurgency. Iraq will best be able to achieve stability when U.S. troops leave.

Congress has an important responsibility to stand up to the president and insist on an exit strategy. Unfortunately, the Republicans running Congress won't stand up to President Bush.
