Poll question: Should Dem leadership be forcefully pressing for our...

3. Terminology
Unconditional - as opposed to what? Who would put conditions on our departure? Who could put them on our departure?

Nonnegotiable - who are we going to negotiate our departure with?

Unconditional and nonnegitionable are usually in reference to surrender, not withdrawal.

4. For the purposes of this poll these terms are used...
...in describing Dem leadership's stance or position in dealing with GOP reps or others who would oppose the immediate withdraw of our troops from Iraq. In other words should they be forceful and unyielding in bringing whatever influence they now have to an effort to bring our troops home immediately, as opposed to being open to BushCo's "surge" plan, or any other delay in bringing the troops home.

Sorry if that wasn't clear.
