原文： Here is the Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi: "After more than 3, 600 lives have been lost to a flawed strategy, we have a responsibility to create a new direction, to those who urge that we wait until September, I say it has been four and a half years and a half trillion dollars at least. We have already waited too long. " This is the second time the House has voted for a specific withdrawal target date. President Bush vetoed legislation approved by the House and Senate earlier this year that tied war funding to a timetable. The president has promised to veto any new such legislation reaching his desk and would likely have enough support on Capitol Hill to sustain a veto. In his comments accompanying the release of the interim progress report, President Bush reiterated his view that the U. S. can still succeed in Iraq, urged patience and said he considers history's judgment of his actions more important than public opinion polls
