I can't seem to find it.....Please Help....can someone please explain - What Senator McCain's plan is to end the War, and How will it be funded for the next four years?
His plan seems to be the 'why not 100 years in Iraq'.
Basically his plan is to IGNORE IRAQ while continuing to PUMP LARGE AMOUNTS OF US$$$ into it, and hope like hell the next administration after him will deal with it.
I believe she and Senator Obama beat the subject into the ground during the twenty-one debate marathon. I'd like to hear Senator McCain discuss the markers for victory and what it will cost to get there. I'd like to know what we can expect.
You are asking an inpomlete question. You need to ask how either candidate is going to fund it. With Obama we will be there a minuim of 16 months and even know he is slowing changing rhetoric to longer. So ask it of both and as you have had no luck either have I.

Please stay on topic. I do not need to ask about the other candidates; however, you may if you wish contribute to this topic.
McCain is in it to win and needless to say does not have a plan to exit short of winning. He has pretty much said that. Funding by any candidate will continue to be by continuing resolutions. No one can say for short how it would wind down because month 12 assumptions would be based on what happened during the first 8 months etc.

I find the "blank check" assertions very disconcerting and think it is very irresponsible of the conservative choice for the Presidency to ignore the budget concerns involved with either continuing or de-escalating the War.
While many may not like the other candidates choice for ending the War - they have clearly stated (even if the costs over-run) where they will get funding for domestic programs, and much of it has been proposed from de-escalation of the war. While it is easy to surmise how this will help the economy McCain has been a bit more obtuse in how his economic plan and the War's funding efforts will tie together.

Yup but given a choice of Obama or McCain bankruptcy is ok with some folks.
All of the candidates are spending more money then their budget policies would allow.
