What Iraq Drawdown Plan?

Robert Parry Gates Hearing Has New Urgency
http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/120406K.shtml
Robert Parry writes, "George W. Bush's back-of-the-hand to the Baker-Hamilton Commission's Iraq War troop drawdown plan - and the disclosure that Bush ousted Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld after Rumsfeld sought a major shift in war policy - has given new urgency to the December 5 hearings on Robert M. Gates to be Bush's new Pentagon chief. Senators who were inclined to rubber-stamp Gates's nomination have reason to think twice."
