Now look there, Sport, you'll simply have to try better to get some facts around before you start typing. Mr. McCain did not express the thought that we'd be at war for another hundred years, but that we might have a presence in Iraq for that long. Similar to the US military presence in Europe which has now passed the half century mark with little fanfare.

And Mr. McCain has done precious little pandering to the right from where I am sitting. Had he done so, I might have even considered voting for him. As it were, he is and was pretty far down on my list of canidates for the nomination. Most of the right share, and shared, my opinion of him in regards to issues of interest to conservatives. It's rather disingenuous on your part to ascribe Mr. McCain's canidacy to me, and my efforts, when you are fully aware of my opinion of him from my previous posts.

Making sense of the rest of your post in regards to Mr. Obama is quite the task. Mr. Obama's attempts to turn comments clearly deprecatory towards a large percentage of Americans into a simple concern for their financial welfare isn't going to fly. I find little enough to like about most Democrats but that, like Mr. Obama's condescension and elitism, is not as much a concern to me as it should be to Democrats comtemplating his nomination to the presidency. Both he and Sir Hillary are the Democratic, and presumably your, canidates for the nomination. Until one of them is standing on the capitol steps with raised hand next January the twentieth it's all a matter of humourous hypocrisy leavened with the outright lie, to me.

You've had better posts. (g)
