U.S. President George W. Bush speaks about the Iraq War Emergency Supplemental while in the Diplomatic Reception Room of the White House in Washington, March 23, 2007. The US House voted Friday for the first time to clamp a cutoff deadline on the Iraq war, agreeing by a thin margin to pull combat troops out by next year and pushing the new Democratic-led Congress ever closer to a showdown with President Bush.
