Yeah, the fighting troops will be all out, and all that will be left is some advisors. Sounds pretty good to me, considering it was a complete waste of lives in the first place.

as for congress, they want answers and they want reasons-i thought they didn't pass the stiffer resolution because the president said he was going to be forthcoming?

No, they didn't want to force us out of Libya in 15 days.

so much for that. they did what they did to give him time to answer-but that time is running out, which explains the letter-and now the white houses response.

Yeah, Boehner created that letter instead as a panacea to those mad he pulled the War Resolution (allows them to play both sides of the story). But Boehner's letter doesn't have any power to compel the President to even answer it.
I agree with you, I don't like the President's answer on Libya.
