Hillary Clinton said Saturday that she and other Democratic senators are frustrated in their attempts to force President Bush to remove American troops from Iraq.Clinton, who spoke to several hundred people here, noted that Congress passed a bill with a withdrawal deadline earlier this year, but Bush vetoed it."We just don't have enough Democrats to overcome the veto," she said. "So we have to keep working to try to keep pressure on the president, and try to persuade more Republicans to come help us."Anti-war activists have criticized Democratic members of Congress, saying they have not stood firm against the president.
