The United States military could stay in Iraq for "maybe a hundred years" and that "would be fine with me," John McCain told two hundred or so people at a town hall meeting in Derry, New Hampshire, on Thursday evening. Toward the end of this session, which was being held shortly before the Iowa caucuses were to start, McCain was confronted by Dave Tiffany, who calls himself a "full-time antiwar activist." In a heated exchange, Tiffany told McCain that he had looked at McCain's campaign website and had found no indication of how long McCain was willing to keep U.S. troops in Iraq. Arguing that George W. Bush's escalation of troops has led to a decline in U.S. casualties, McCain noted that the United States still maintains troops in South Korea and Japan. He said he had no objection to U.S. soldiers staying in Iraq for decades, "as long as Americans are not being injured, harmed or killed." After the event ended, I asked McCain about his "hundred years" comment, and he reaffirmed the remark, excitedly declaring that U.S. troops could be in Iraq for "a thousand years" or "a million years," as far as he was concerned. The key matter, he explained, was whether they were being killed or not: "It's not American presence; it's American casualties." http://www.motherjones.com/mojoblog/archives/2008/01/6735_mccain_in_nh_wo.html So will this help him to win the election?Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Just sounds like he wants to further the world police motive that the UNITED STATES CORPORATION wants.
I don't have kids. And just because I support the war doesn't mean I'm going to fight in it. We have plenty of volunteers for that.
chicken hawk is a term coined to describe those support a war but are unwilling to fight or contribute towards victory in said war.
How do you know what someone's lifestyle is on the internet? Can you tell by their Avatars or are you psychic?
I have spent time in CA Sandy's posts typify the attitude of people I met there Therefore I for can ireasonably nfer Sady's lifestyle
Damn Sandy, learn some humility. You ain't shit. Hey now, don't judge us all because of her. I agree there are a ton of flakes in CA, especially little posers and even those with a bit of money thinking they're hot shit when they're still at the bottom of the barrel, but we're not all like that. That was just an exaggeration by him. Even if we pulled out our troops tomorrow and ended our mission, we'd still have SOME troops there regardless as we have troops all over the world. It may not be an invasion force, but it will be enough to have a watchful presence there as he mentioned with Korea and Japan, and how long ago were those wars? - N
You spent some time in CA so you know ANYTHING about me and my lifestyle? Uh, no. You know I have homes in guarded/gated communities there as well as all over the country. My attitude is not typical of anyone but a winner. You have no iota of a clue about my lifestyle of which you can only dream/fantasize. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Nice try at deductions, though. I sure hope you aren't planning on being a scientist. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
