Watch the New McCain Viral Vid: john.he.is

You've seen the Obama video "Yes We Can." Now see the McCain knock-off.

I think my favorite part is the guy blowing into the paper bag at the end. And remember, we were on the scene for that "100 years of war" comment, and we asked McCain if he stood by it. Not only did he stand by it, he endorsed "a thousand years" or "a million years" of war.

Pretty good stuff!

Thanks

Look folks, here is the deal. We have 2 options:
Option #1 - STAY and enforce an uneasy “peace”.
Option #2 - LEAVE and the entire country will collapse into civil war within a year. Within 2 years, the Iranians, Syrians, Turks and Saudis will be involved. At that point, it will be a total blood bath and there will be genocide.

Till we acknowledge these scenarios, we will get no where fast.

As for who will get us out? Only Obama. But don’t be fooled that it will happen right away. The MJ article on the logistics of getting out was very accurate. It will take at least 3 to 4 years.

Let’s just learn from this that the framers of the Constitution had really good reason for requiring the President to go to Congress to formerly declare war. Let’s not be so quick to give so much power to a President again.

The country will collaspe if we leave? Are you a military or political analyst? Or are you making this argument on the basis of what is said by the same people who told everyone that Saddam Hussein was involved in 9/11-lies, or how Saddam had weapons of mass destruction-lies, or how he used gas on people in the 1980's-guess what! we gave him that gas. What happened after we left Vietnam- what is our relationship with them now. Or you can make the practical argument- AMERICA IS BROKE. we are Trillions in debt that is owed to countrys like China, and Saudi Arabia. We have 60 Trillion in entitlements with a smaller work force and the baby boomer's retiring. The dollar is falling dramatically which the currency is one of the reasons America is a super power, and it is being undermined because federal reserve printing money out of thin air to pay for big government, and mass over spending on wars of aggression that are undeclared and unconstitutional, of country's like Iraq that were not threat to our national security. Think for yourself and take your brain of of the FOX news teat you keep sucking on.

We need to get out of Iraq immediately and bring our men and women home. That's what the majority of the U.S. wants and so do I.

But if we leave, who will protect our oil?

Bring them home, build up our own national security, use sanctions to control how much the other countries kirkbrew alluded to get involved in the chicken hawking of Iraq, hunker down and rebuild our country. Perfect answer? No. Right thing for us now? In my opinion, yes.
