Democratic National Committee Ad.

President Bush has talked about our staying in Iraq for 50 years...

Senator McCain, President Bush has talked about our staying in Iraq for 50 years.

Maybe 100.

That would be fine with me.

100 years in Iraq

President Bush has talked about our staying in Iraq 50 years...

5 years

$500 Billion Spent

over 4,000 dead

Maybe 100.

If all he offers is more of the same...is John McCain the right choice for America's future?

Is John McCain the Right Choice for America's Future?

1. Great ad! I heard the repubs are trying to fight this on legal grounds
they are so full of crap. They are saying saying that Hillary and Obama had influence in making the ad Howard Dean says no way.

6. I see that Howard Dean gets it; John McCain is the problem!
Not Obama's pastor.

7. So cavalier about it too
Repukes are upset that they cut out a snippet and didn't mention he said "as long as our troops aren't getting hurt" and "we were in Japan for 50 years."

First of all, Japan attacked us, Iraq did not.

But what really gets me is their nonchalant attitude when talking about war. Same for every republican I've every met.

11. Send 'em money..Obama too...
...I haven't looked into the deal between Obama/DNC. Guess I need to find details. It's a good thing though.

14. One big problem with this ad...
It says "over 4000 dead". However, that is only counting US troop fatalities. There have been over 1,000,000 Iraqi deaths in this war. That should have been included as well.

17. it's a great ad
Edited on Thu May-01-08 01:56 AM by MisterGamut
and it fairly showcases the flaw in Mccain's logic in a brief soundbite. For those who want a more substantive argument against the Republican critics that it's out of context, please see here.
