On January 10, 2007, President Bush outlined his new plans for Iraq, including a troop increase.

On January 26, 2007, the United States Senate unanimously confirmed Lt. Gen. David H. Petraeus, to be General.

Soon after, the Senate started talks to pass a non-binding resolution opposing President Bush and Gen. Petraeus' plans for a troop surge of 20,000+ troops.  I signed the pledge.

Conservatives blocked measures, but liberals were intent on have a vote.

On February 16, 2007, the House passed a non-binding resolution opposing President Bush and Gen. Petraeus' troop surge plan.  I made the pledge cover the houses decision.  Seventeen Republicans voted for the non-binding resolution, they will not receive from me financial help.

On February 18, 2007, the Senate non-binding resolution is blocked by "the GOP".  Senators voting yea will not receive financial help from me.

I want victory.

On March 8, 2007, Democrats push new legislation that includes plans to withdrawal troops from Iraq.  The proposals will be attached to an energy spending bill.  This is done so it will be harder for those opposed to the plans of "slow-bleed" to vote no.  If they vote no, it could be used against them without the context of the vote.

On March 12, 2007, Dick Cheney addressed the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.  Dick Cheney provided intelligent analysis of the underlining dangers to this liberal "slow-bled". [2]
