#1 The oil is flowing. Muslims are killing Muslims. 150,000 US troops are in range of Teheran. You can see current movies in the Green Zone. US casuality rates are low and declining. Muslims are revealing their inherently savage natures. It ain't perfect, but...

#4 Well, we could of followed Ripley’s advice;“ we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.” Certainly would have saved cleaning up all the loose ends that upsets Senator McCain and others. Certainly would have avoided those 2,000+ casualties over three years everyone seems to think are soooo outrageous even though they’re less than what we lost in one day in Normandy or Antietam. We could have saved billions of dollars in rebuilding which has resulted in the fastest growing economy in the Arab world, glassed over parking lots are certainly more cheaper. We could have avoided those ugly pictures of people waving their [purple] fingers at us. I guess the regular finger salute we get from the Iran and Paleos is much more comforting for the Senator.

The only question is Senator McCain are you the man to authorize such a plan the next time around? Cause if you're not part of that solution, then you're just another part of the problem.

#5 Still harping about the immediate post-invasion, some 3+ years later.

Did McCain ever make decisions about troop strength level when he served? I didn't think so.

#6 Conservatives: McCain not winning in 2008.

More troops won't help him, either.
