That was then; this is now.

And that was the Clenis; this is the Decider:

Think Progress » FLASHBACK: In 1999, Bush Demanded A Timetable
Flashback to 1999, when George W. Bush was governor of Texas. Then, Bush criticized President Clinton for not setting a timetable for exiting Kosovo.

George W. Bush, 4/9/99, Houston Chronicle:

“Victory means exit strategy, and it’s important for the president to explain to us what the exit strategy is.”

And on the specific need for a timetable:

George W. Bush, 6/5/99, Scripps Howard/Seattle Post-Intelligencer:

“I think it’s also important for the president to lay out a timetable as to how long they will be involved and when they will be withdrawn.”
If Republicans had any shame, they'd all commit seppuku and we'd be done with them.
