McCain: Bringing Troops Home From Iraq "Not Too Important"
Having apparently learned nothing from the "100 Years" backlash, McCain tells the Today Show he can't give a good estimate of when troops would come home, "but that's not too important."

2. I guess McCain would have wanted to stay in that prison
camp longer.

3. McCain's argument is cynical beyond belief
  • Americans don't care about being lied into a war, they just care about American soldiers being killed.
  • As long as American soldiers aren't being killed, they can stay in Iraq until doomsday protecting oil fields under US control and management of private US oil companies;
  • The war, in fact, was about oil and the reason for energy independence is so that American force won't "have to" fight dirty imperialist wars.
McCain as president will just be a kinder, gentler war criminal.

4. Vile idea
He is such a pandering, lying, senile, old-fool. If you hear these fools tell it, the only way to honor our military dead is to create more dead. This is a secret so don't tell anyone, but I really hate republicans!!!!! WE WANT THEIR OIL-- JUST COME OUT AND SAY IT ASSHOLE!!!

5. At this point
All Obama has to do to win in November is to stand back and let McCain continue to talk. Good gawd the man seems incapable of giving an interview without winding up with his foot in his mouth by the end of it.

10. Thanks
...for the warm welcome. :hi:

I know what you mean about the screwy weather as of late. Everyone I know has taken to calling it June-uary since it seems to resemble January more than June. I have the misfortune of having to work outside in it. Instead of working on my tan I am fighting a losing battle to keep from growing moss.

7. I understand the point he is trying to make....
I just completely disagree with him. We DO care if we are in Iraq with or without casualties.
