Gen. Patraeus to Suggest Troop Reductions in March

In an ABC News article, General David Patraeus has shed a little more light on what we might (hopefully) be able to expect in the coming months:

" 'It's a crucial recognition, and we have to acknowledge that — however, you don't have to stay at the level of forces during that time, and I think the question in everyone's mind, frankly, is 'OK, so, there does need to be a long-term strategy. What's the level of our commitment during that time?' And the answer is, certainly, a good bit less than what we have committed right now,' Petraeus said."
