c) I like Obamas understanding of the situation in Iraq right now etc... I think just because McCain has been a POW for many years doesn't qualify him to make decisions on the topic. I think he has no clue what would be the best method of resolving the situation.

I really dont think that Obama has ANY CLUE about this. He has no history in the governement and has no understanding of what is going on...and if you think this statement is true then you may want to do some research on facts. There have already been a few instances where McCain has helped make decisions over there or voted over there Obama did not agree and these couple of times McCain was right.

Also i really HATE Obama's plan that he first laid out which was remove so many people every month and within 1 1/2 years everyone would be gone. First off they tried that in veitnam and guess what happened to the last couple groups....oh yea they all died. And once again i still believe leaving now is not the right thing to do, this is NOT a war to help this iraqi people better themselves. This war comes down to two things 1. Oil(obviously) 2. National Security. Thats it. You leave now we will not have the control we have again for over 20 years, gaurenteed, and i am willing to bet there would be another attack on american soil by that time.

And its not about McCain just being a POW, its about all the time he has served, he knows what its like to be those soldiers over there, and he knows what they are thinking and how they feel. Obama has NO CLUE.
