birdwatcher | Some Democrats advocate

But with midterm elections just 2 1/2 months away, Bush and his team are trying to turn the public debate away from whether the Iraq invasion has worked out to what would happen if U.S. troops were withdrawn, as some Democrats advocate. Using such terms as "havoc" at Monday's news conference, Bush made no effort to suggest the situation in Iraq is improving. Instead, he argued: "If you think it's bad now, imagine what Iraq would look like if the United States leaves before this government can defend itself."

Сейчас неважно, почему кого-то, кроме географов, должно интересовать, как будет выглядеть Ирак при том или другом развитии событий. Мой вопрос не в этом. Вопрос в том, что это за "некоторые демократы за вывод войск". Последнее голосование прошло со счетом 93-6. По-моему, это в пределах погрешности голосовательной системы.
