Kicking Ass: The Democratic Party's Blog

Some perspective

Posted by Michael Link on January 4, 2008 at 11:42 AM

John McCain corrects his statement that we should be in Iraq for the next hundred years, and says to make it a million years. To understand the implications of this, I put together this handy chart:

Both, I suppose, are only estimates though.

It's not often I read something on the DNC blog that makes me spit my lunch out laughing. Thanks! (For the laugh, not the spit-out lunch.)

Great reality-check, Michael. Get a person to think and they've vote Democratic every time.

McCain is a jackass. Totally unacceptable warmongering fool. Do we really want a leader who sings "bomb, bomb, iran" and thinks it's funny? What a freakin disgrace!

After Bush blows up the world, civilization will probably start again in Iraq in a million years just like it did last time. McCain is just making sure our permanent military bases are still there protecting the oil reserves when it happens.

The sad thing is that Adam and Eve will probably find the same U.S. troops redeployed there when they leave the Garden of Eden...and they will still be waiting for the bonuses Bush promised but would not include in the defense bill.

How a man who EXPERIENCED the ravages of a War, can be a hawk and want the USA involved in more of it, is mind boggling.

Wouldn't such a man want to look at getting to the table, forcing reconcilliation and taking on their own security and finances, etc on the Iraqi people? Wouldn't such a man never want another US boy to go through what he went through, or have to spend the rest of their lives in a wheelchair over an illegal invasion?

It shows what kind of man John McCain is.

Unfortunetly, in my gut, I have a feeling McCain is going to end up being the Repug Candidate.
It will sicken me, but I will work very hard to make sure this sick old man does not become our CIC.
