100 Year Occupation in Iraq? 1,000 Years, 10,000 Years?!?

Get this one. The Democratic Party and Moveon.org are running ads criticizing John McCain for saying that he supports a 100 year occupation in Iraq.

"At issue is McCain's answer, in January, to a question about Bush's theory that troops could be in Iraq for 50 years.

McCain said: 'Maybe 100. As long as Americans are not being injured or harmed or wounded or killed, that'd be fine with me, and I hope it would be fine with you, if we maintain a presence in a very volatile part of the world where al-Qaida is training, recruiting, equipping and motivating people every single day.'"
