McCain/Obama Townhall Debate

[Michael Larson]

Well, how are the candidates doing tonight?

[Brian E. Kelly]

Well if McCain would stop addressing me as "His Friend" he would be doing better in my book.

The problem is McCain is still in Saigon, Baghdad has become his Khe Sahn.

He goes on and on about WINNING, but will not tell us exactly what WINNING entails.

*****, can't we go back to MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, take our toys and go home?

Obama doesn't want to go home

He wants to go to Afghanistan.

Does that mean all the terrorists are gone in Iraq?

I thought you wanted the troops home?

Which is it?

[James H. Bushart]

The shortage of troops in Afghanistan has required longer tours, wearier troops, and needless American deaths. Every commander there is shouting for more support.

Obama is right on, this topic. McCain is dead wrong.

And I don't blame them one bit.

If we had been so busy over the last two decades in spending the "peace dividend" while reducing our force size, there wouldn't be a problem.

[Bob Elliott]

I like the way Obama keeps calling out McCain when he lies about Obama's proposed policies..

At least he has some.

Hobsons choice, the world is not as simplistic as you Michael and the people you want to elect and have elected in the past try to make it seem.

IRAQ was not a problem. Iraq is not a problem. OSAMA BIN LADEN is not in IRAQ.

Now McKnucklehead is going on about Iran, well duh, We destabilised the entire middle east and Iran is going to flex their muscles. Why, BECAUSE WE ARE STUCK IN IRAQ.

Read a HISTORY BOOK McCain, at least try and figure out which tribes hold which beliefs and hold the most power, without lieberdude whispering in your ear.

The high cost of maintaining a Viet Nam sized military was impractical. So was starting a second war in Iraq...before finishing the war we started in Afghanistan.

24 hours after leaving his base....9 men from my son's unit that was being returned to their base in Italy....were killed in an attack by the Taliban that never should have happened. The enemy is increasing in numbers and in strength in the middle of our war with them.

The mistake of Iraq should be immediately corrected and we should refocus our efforts where they count.

Really?

Is Alqueda there?

And Obama just said he wants to impose more sanctions on Iran. Hmmm did those work in Iraq?

Talk about having no clue.

[Brian E. Kelly]

You are comming around if your comment is directe to McCain Michael.

Saddam did not have terrorists in Iraq until we created the vacuum.

How is that relevant?

I have said over and over, " the war we find ourselves in now is the not the war we started in Iraq."

Is that so hard to understand?

They brought their fight to us where we were.

Would you rather have had them come here?

Sometimes I have to answer honeslty YES. Maybe it will get the chicken hawks of their flabby old butts and have to actually do something, or sacrafice something for the good of our country. God Forbid.

The burden of the misguided war in Iraq has bot been shared equally by all Americans, myself included.


On another note, did McCain really promise another 300 BILLION dollars to buy up mortgages?????????? IDIOT. SOCIALIST.
