    America has been occupying Iraq for 5 years now, with our soldiers getting hurt, wounded, or killed most every day. If it's only ok to stay there if no one gets hurt, wounded, or killed then he seems to be saying it's past time to leave that place.

      a point I've made before

      like I said, McCain's is an asinine statement

      ----

      the 'no one gets hurt' was obviously an off the cuff qualifier

      muslims have a tradition of repelling the invader

      as long as we're there, there will most likely be sporadic fits of violence and people who don't want us there and are willing to express that fact

      ----

      the Bush administration chose and still choose to call these random acts of defiance and violence 'war', because, like those who misconstrued the 100 years statement, they only care about results, not the truth. It's easier to get people behind a 'war' than a costly occupation with American casualties.Just like it's more dramatic to say McCain is calling for 100 years of war than occupation.

      the confusion and lies, as I already said, started with the Bush administration wanting to galvanize support for their unnecessary 'war' any way they could
