SUMMARY: During an interview with Wolf Blitzer, House Majority Leader John Boehner falsely claimed that the Democratic plan to "pull out the troops" of Iraq is not "what the American people want." In fact, recent polling shows that a majority of Americans favor setting a timetable for withdrawal. In addition, Blitzer did not challenge Boehner's claim that House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi is responsible for the failures of the House ethics committee.
