McCain x 100, x 1,000,000
Setting the primary aside for a moment...
McCain has proven time and again how little he understands about Iraq, it's structure, it's people, and our involvement in being there.
The RNC is suing the DNC (or whatever their respective titles are) over the ad showing McCain stating he is fine with America being in Iraq for 100 years. The Repugs claim it is misrepresenting what he said because he was talking about being their peacefully.
Josh has a nice video on the front page of McCain explaining the comment. In it he states 100 years, 1000 years, 1 million years. He then says, that it is not the American presence that bothers people, but rather American casualties. Well obviously the problem really is American casualties (though the MSM has suddenly stopped reporting on them), and like Vietnam, they aren't going to go away.
McCain then says we have a presence in Kuwait, Japan, South Korea and Germany. Now, my question to Senator McCain is (are you listening John?):
Since our military action phase ended, victory was declared, and our occupation/presence began in each of those countries, how many American soldiers have been killed in each of those countries? Same question for Iraq?
Respectfully,
B.Dub
Follow up question to Senator McCain:
Could you please break down the American casualties into those killed by Sunni Muslims and those killed by Shiite Muslims? Open book, please feel free to use Wikipedia or Joe Lieberman for references as necessary.
