I'm sure glad John McCain explained his position to me on the 100-year presence in Iraq.

He explained that it's going to be just like Japan, right? You have to give it some time. I mean, look how long it took to get a stable, nonviolent occupation in Japan. We dropped the bombs on August 6th and August 9th, 1945, and V-J Day wasn't until August 15th. It took about a week. So, like Japan but ... not quite.

It's going to be more like Germany, right? That took some time. We didn't just drop the big one and move in. We had to invade Europe and beat the Nazis back - the greatest war machine in the history of Europe! Let's see, we invaded on D-Day, June 6th, 1944 and V-E Day was May 7th, 1945. Eleven months. So it's going to be like WWII, only it going to take longer.

How much longer?

Korea! that's it. It's going to be just like Korea. It took 37 months to get North Korea to the bargaining table and get a cease fire. So it's a lot like Korea only it's taking a little longer... longer.

C'mon people, It's only been five years since King George  strapped on his official presidential "Mission Accomplished" codpiece. You have to give Victory a chance! We stayed in Viet Nam for 16 years and we'd still be there if I had my way. Damn Gooks! We gotta get 'em before they get us! Bomb bomb bomb, bomb-bomb Iran. Bomb bomb bomb, bomb-bomb Iran.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.........

So, clearly, it's only those seriously out-of-touch bitter elitists who distorted McCain's 100 year presence position..
