Besides, Iraq is almost not even an issue anymore...violence has dropped significantly, the surge worked, and in ~5 years, the Iraqi's will be finished with training, and thats when we need to leave.
As for an election being important..honestly, either candidate will do a good job i think..it's just as important as every other election we've had for president except a couple - Lincoln comes to mind.

skoob i love you man but dont be dumb. he is exactly like bush i sat today and listend to him with disgust at his retarted speech. he berated the republican party at "failing america" does america have that short term of a memory? or does everyone just listen to the bias news media? MCCAIN VOTED WITH BUSH 95% OF THE TIME!!
honestly my issue is not with iraq ive been there one way or another we will be out of the country in the next few years. all i care about is the republicans joy of scare tactics and slowly dissolving our civil liberties. it starts out small with just being able to legally listen to your phone calls.. you say well i havent got anything to hide.. its just a step in the wrong direction.
its about the past 8 years and the world view of america going down the toilet even more so. i have been overseas for the past 6 years so ive had a good front row seat of it. its McCain saying he would never talk with a "terrorist nation" (Iran) then turning around and saying its a good idea. Its trying to pick fights with everyone and thinking we are better than every other nation in the world. which even if it is true there is no reason to flaunt it.
whats wrong with other nations coming in droves to see the democratic nominee? yeah its really terrible for people to like our leader, we've seen what happens when every nation hates our leader for the past 8 yeras.
2 years ago the republicans got fired, they lost control of congress the american people where fed up with the way they had been running the country. and now just 2 short years later all the republicans have is a new face its the same crap.
