23. You're not accurate.
She was for a timeline for withdrawal back in 2005, when she voted for Russ Feingold's amendment to set a timeline for withdrawal, and made several statements back then supporting a timeline. Here's a biased Newsmax article, but the facts are there. http://www.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2005/11/16/100304.shtml

What she opposed, as your quote shows, was a "certain withdrawal date." She's been consistently against setting a firm, exact date for withdrawal, but since at least the end of 05 she's been for setting a timetable on withdrawal.

I'm not saying I agree with her position. I don't. I'm just saying she didn't contradict herself in the debate.
