So from this thread we learn that oil went from $20 before the war to $135 now and probably will hit $200 in a year.
Since this war has proven to be ruinous for American taxpayers, the fact that food prices have risen to levels where even in America - once the "bread basket of the world" has had to
ration food, and that Americans are having a terrible time paying for gas, clothing, food, mortgages, etc....
Why would McCain want to continue this war that obviously is harming Americans? Why does he want 700 military bases in 130 countries when we cannot afford it? Especially since the war is making this country more insecure militarily and economically shouldn't we stop war and picking on Iran?
Why not save hundreds of billions of dollars a year by ending the war, reducing the American empire?
I'm sure the cowardly mainstream media doesn't have the balls to ask McCain - but anyone care to respond here?
