Speaking of quotes taken out of context, the little McCain ditty has to top  
the charts. He was answering a question about when we would be 100 percent 
out 
 of the middle east and pointed out that as we are still in Germany and Japan 
 more than 60 years after those wars that it may be decades or even 100 years 
 before the last american is out in light of our past history. I have heard 
Obama  and Clinton say that McCain was predicting the war would last that 
long 
and that  he intended to keep fighting. As we are clearly not at war with 
Japan and  Germany, and that was his analogy, he did not mean the fight would 
last 
that  long. 
     As for the oil, I sure wish we would actually get  a barrel or two 
instead of paying full price on the open market. It seems that  if that is 
why we 
went to war, we would not be paying so much for it now... I  have no hope any 
of the three will make major changes in the oil arena as all 3  are taking 
money from the oil interests.

We don't  need to have a large military presence there, and it sure
won't be for a  hundred years. The oil will run out long before that
and the desert  kingdoms will be able to go back to what they were
doing a thousand years  ago.

I have no hope that either Hillary or McCain will figure out how  to
end the age of oil. Obama might not be able to do it either, but  I
think he has a clue that it needs  doing.
