I can win that war in 5 years... Win that war!

McCain is now saying that he can win the Iraq win in "only" 5 years if he becomes president. Only five years. He's gotta be kidding. Just five more years, folks. Sure, that's another 4,000 dead troops and a couple hundred billion a year (that would mean, say, another TRILLION DOLLARS), but other than that, uh, other than that we're basically screwed. McCain isn't even pretending that he'll end the war in Iraq. He's pretty much promising us that if he is elected president, we'll be there another five years. Absolutely astounding.

One more thing. When asked to commit to removing US troops in five years McCain said no. Uh huh.

MCCAIN: I promise I'll be home by 11pm.

AMERICA: Really, you promise?

MCCAIN: No.
