Bush actually demanded a timetable for Kosovo in 1999

Then Governor Bush of Texas criticized President Clinton for not having a exit strategy for leaving Kosovo

“I would strongly urge that if there are U.S. troops involved, they be under U.S. command or NATO command,” Bush said Thursday. “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it’s also important for the president to lay out a timetable as to how long they will be involved and when they will be withdrawn. If there needs to be a residual force, it is important that over time U.S. troops are withdrawn and our European allies carry the majority of the load.”
