McCain: I Like Maliki's Timetable, Not Obama's
So in the interview that just ran on CNN, John McCain said that al Maliki's 16 month timetable for withdrawal from Iraq is a "pretty good timetable." He only adds that "they have to be based on conditions on the ground."

In other words, Barack Obama's 16 month timetable is a catastrophe but al Maliki's is "pretty good". And the difference is that al Maliki's is based on conditions on the ground and Obama's isn't -- even though they're both 16 months.

1. Why is one 16-mo timetable better than another?

Mr. and Mrs. America want to know.

2. This is great. Now Obama is for definite withdrawal, and McCain is for "kind of" withdrawal

3. And I know. And I know. And I know.

What, John, what do you know? Sheesh, I couldn't even watch that. And it figures that Wolf doesn't actually ask him to explain anything!

4. Man what a bitter old man who is shallow enough to politicize this war, eom.

5. As usual,

'something' is being made of 'nothing.' Kind of like 'surge' differences of opinions.

6. "After we're done we will never have to go back..."

Because by that time we will have drained the oil wells and made the profits and there won't be any reason to go back.

Democracy Deschmocmacy.
