I get the impression, BB, that McCain thinks the war in Iraq is a good idea and was totally justified from the start.

I don't.

That's why I don't like the idea of McCain being president.

As for Obama, I don't really buy this notion that he was always "against the war"...he voted to continue funding it, didn't he?

But I do think he's less for it than McCain. ;-) I hope so, anyway.

I regard both the Democrats and Republicans as almost certain to continue that war, and quite likely to start another. Obama might not be inclined to, though. Got my fingers crossed on that, but I have no assurance of it. I will never find out unless he gets elected, will I?
