In one, he said the comparison to staying in Japan, Germany, etc. (i.e. no casualties) was not legitimate, because of diffeent conditions and local culture. He said the Iraqis would resent our presence, and the US should leave as quickly as possible.

In the other, he said the comparison was legitimate and we should stay as long as iwe want to.. He didn't explain how we would get to the 'no casualties' stage, however.

He made those contraidctory statements within months of the same very recent year.

When DLS's 'sane' vote for McCain, which McCain will they be voting for?

AFL-CIO, ha. “Education” about McCain = propaganda. They're robotically Dem.

“renewed energy not only for bread-and-butter issues but also for social justice”

This tells the sane to choose McCain.
