Timetables are bad...except when they're good.

Two quotes from George W. Bush in 1999, when the then-candidate was criticizing President Clinton for not setting a timetable for the exit of US troops from Kosovo:

"Victory means exit strategy, and it's important for the president to explain to us what the exit strategy is." 4/9/99

"I think it's also important for the president to lay out a timetable as to how long they will be involved and when they will be withdrawn." 6/5/99

Glad you cleared that up, George.
