Why does John McCain love to see US soldiers get killed?

mister_argle_bargle

why do US cities like to see firemen killed

or cops killed

we should disband all the police forces in every city cause they can get killed righhhhhhhtt?

Any veteran of war hates to see war occur but understands its necessity in this situation

Why do you love to tout US Soldier's deaths as a political point as you are doing right now to put words into the mouth of man who never said he "loves" to see US Soldiers killed? You must love it when Soldiers die since you see our deaths as more "nails" in a coffin.

It shows you have little understanding of what Soldiers do. It shows you have little understanding of what is going on in Iraq.

Only the dead have seen the end of war. Not sure who said it, or if I am saying it right. I am sure that John McCain loves to see US Soldiers getting killed. I am sure that he hates it. I suppose he could make the easy, popular decision and pull all of the Military out of the Mid East. Then we could watch the region implode, have Muslim extremists rule, and let them kill whoever does not see it their way.

The way you frame the question indicates you have a future as a journalist for the New York Times.

Why do people post mindless rhetorical answers on here? This is so stupid.

I'm a Democrat and I find this offensive. I'm voting for Obama and my second choice is McCain. They might polarize on the issue of the war, but at least both have the integrity enough to stick with their side - Obama that we should never have been in the war and McCain that he's always supported it.
McCain was a prisoner of war and had the option of going home after less than one year - but chose to stay because he would be let go but the other soldiers would have had to stay because they were not as connected as he as both his father and grandfather were Admirals in the Navy. He was a prisoner of war for 5 1/2 years.
Excerpt from Wikipedia, "Although McCain was badly wounded, his captors refused to give him medical care unless he gave them military information; they beat and interrogated him, but McCain only offered his name, rank, serial number, and date of birth . . ."

So you are trying to compare Bill Clinton to a GOP candidate in a military forum? Wow, liberals really are stuck on stupid.

Retired Army, I can tell you that overall, everybody in the Army hated Bill Clinton. Why, because he was a miserable weak Commander In Chief.

The one thing that liberals can never get through their thick skulls is that we have an all volunteer force. I volunteered to serve in Iraq three times, and I also volunteered to do nothing during the miserable Democratic administration that the military had to languish through...

Do you base all your opinions and ideals on those 2 second sound bites on the evening news, if you do, I sure hope you don't vote.

Get informed and study all the candidates first. He is the only one that is experienced enough to know all about war, and those of us who have fought in war, don't like it anymore then anybody else. There is a proper time and place for war, and the leader of this country had better know this!!!

The Democrats have never had a veteran in office as President and this is why Bill Clinton ignored the facts and did nothing when hundreds of Marines were killed in Beirut and left the door open for 9/11.

Sad little Ronbot, McCain has been at the sharp end, you havent.

Put the Actual quote about 100years up if you dare........

Ron Paul has as much chance of being President as Rosie O'Donnell being a Playboy Playmate

one of the most ignorant statements I have ever heard

Your rant is tiresome and spreads like a web of confusion it is. You have to investigate the history of the region, its social structures and what's been going on there for centuries then take in the methods the region uses to influence countries outside its area
Why we are there crosses many issues social, financial and political.
Bill Clinton along with Hillary Clinton both made public statements on Iraq and the danger it places everyone in while bill was president.
It really doesn't matter who gets elected president the problems of the Middle East will still be an issue on their plate. Pulling out and providing no action is the biggest mistake the US could make

I'm hoping and praying that McCain doesnt become our next president, has his mental stability been checked. I know for a fact that everyone who lives through a war camp, comes out with mental or physical damage.

I don't think he actually likes seeing the troops die unnecessarily - but I don't think he really cares about them either.

Alan K

Yep, if you need a replacement for the war hero Bush, insane McCain is your man.

NONAME

he is embarrassed by the mess bush has made in Iraq, killing American troops when there were no weapons of mass destruction and letting in terrorists into Iraq to kill more Americans
he feels he cant disown America's worst president
