Shouldn't Obama point out to McCain the number of Iraqi's death

[Johonny]

Republican presidential candidate John McCain, ridiculing Barack Obama for "the audacity of hopelessness" in his policies on Iraq, said Friday that the entire Middle East could have plunged into war had U.S. troops been withdrawn as his rival advocated.

WTF the dude was perfectly ok to attack this country on false pack of lies. Countless (millions) of Iraqi people are dead because of this and millions more displaced. The change in power put political and social pressure on Iran, Saudi Arbia, Syria and Turkey. Most of which has lead to more negative results throughout US efforts for security. Yet some how Obama isn't thinking about middle east stability? Huh? Even the Iraqi government hopes we leave McMoron.

1. Most americans don't care about dead Iraqis. Certainly not McCain.

That was the whole point of Iraq in the first place.

3. Right. In fact, the whole "victory" verbiage is designed to make us feel PROUD

of the war and of having killed Iraqis--remember, if we killed them, then they were not innocent.

5. well yesterday Obama

pointed out the dead American soldiers because of the war. I liked it. It was a good answer to McCain's babbling. I wish he'd go further. If McCain wants to talk middle east stability lets open up what the war did to the middle east and why the people in the region want us gone. There never will be flowers and candy.

6. Americans care about dead american soldiers.

They don't care about dead Iraqis.

9. I don't think that's exactly true

or Bush wouldn't have done so much to keep their images off the screen and to press Iraqi dead as terrorist dead. McCain wants to argue Obama wants to leave regardless of what that might do to the Iraqi people. The way to counter act that is to show what McCain's war did do to the Iraqi people.

2. Damn right they should.

But they dont want the LIVs knowing the truth about the deaths of Iraqis. This war weve waged has killed more Iraqis than Saddam ever dreamed of.

That fact will NEVER be covered.

on edit: I meant: by the media. Not Obama.

4. I'm hoping Obama brings this up

I'm a little miffed he hasnt paid as much attention to the suffering and dead Iraqi's as I think should be out there - the true price and extent of a war based on lies is in the millions of lives - but maybe that would be the knockout punch in a debate.

some americans truly believe that one american is worth more than 10 foreigners, etc.

:(

8. Even for the hawkiest of hawks..

I'd think, should have a hard time justifying a million dead and another million displaced. If thats not the case, then I lose all hope for humanity.

7. No because Americans don't care

and will consider it an attack on our military.
