McCain On Iraq

There are two ads up and running with the 100 years quote and according to one follow-up poll, they're having an effect. I've suggested giving a few bucks to the Democratic National Committee and MoveOn.org for their efforts to counter McCain while his prospective Democratic opponent, whoever that may be, is still in the primary battle.
In the meantime, both the Republican National Committee and McCain himself have complained that the ads are misleading. They're not. There's no need to be so foolish as to accuse McCain of advocating "war" or "fighting" in Iraq. His own words resonate, as videos down further on this page show.
But I wanted to add this:

McCain wants to stay in Iraq until no more Americans are getting killed, no matter how long it takes and how many Americans get killed achieving that goal—that is, the goal of not getting any more Americans killed. And once that goal is achieved, we'll stay.

Hat tip Josh Marshall at TPM for reminding us all again.
