JB has logic on his side
Well, pretty close in any case. The Rant’s JB Williams argues:
Rhetorically, they drew an immediate distinction between Representative Murtha?s call to withdraw troops in six months and Republicans call to withdraw them right away. But get real ? if pulling our troops out of Iraq in six months is good, then pulling them out right away is even better.
Rhetorically speaking? Sure. Logically?

If having the baby in 9 months is good, having the baby in 3 months will be great!!!
If cooking infected meat for 90 minutes is good then cooking said meat for 5 minutes = delicious.
If smacking JB Williams about the head and neck with a plastic whiffle-bat for an hour=fun, substituting a Louisville Slugger=*bliss*.
…not that I condone violence in any way.
