During a town hall meeting in Derry, New Hampshire last night, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) told a crowd of roughly two hundred people that it “would be fine with” him if the U.S. military stayed in Iraq for “a hundred years“:
Q: President Bush has talked about our staying in Iraq for 50 years — (cut off by McCain)
McCAIN: Make it a hundred.
Q: Is that … (cut off)
McCAIN: We’ve been in South Korea … we’ve been in Japan for 60 years. We’ve been in South Korea 50 years or so. That would be fine with me. As long as Americans …
Q: [tries to say something]
McCAIN: As long as Americans are not being injured or harmed or wounded or killed. That’s fine with me, I hope that would be fine with you, if we maintain a presence in a very volatile part of the world where Al Queada is training and equipping and recruiting and motivating people every single day.

Well, Sell-out McCain wouldn't be fine with me, not even for 100 days, hours, minutes, or seconds
Sell-out McCain should just retire and run some fund-raiser charity for hurt vets (without diping into the money cookie jar). That is the only possible thing McCain could do for our country that would be helpful.
Such a statement is so out of touch with more than 70% of voters. Quoting another blogger, "What color is the sky on your planet?"
