No, it's not a timetable. It's a general time horizon.
Iraq and the US have called for an agreement on a "general time horizon" for the withdrawal of US troops from Iraq, the White House has announced.
But wait! That's not all!
"Improving conditions should allow for the agreements now under negotiation to include a general time horizon for meeting aspirational goals - such as the resumption of Iraqi security control in their cities and provinces and the further reduction of US combat forces from Iraq," said White House spokeswoman Dana Perino in a statement.
Aspirational freakin' goals! Oh dude, that's sooooo hot!

I guess that means goals they don't really have to meet, huh? Because they were just, you know, aspirational in the first place.
It can't be better than that.
