My friends, I will have an energy policy that we will be talking about, which will eliminate our dependence on oil from the Middle East that will - that will then prevent us - that will prevent us from having ever to send our young men and women into conflict again in the Middle East.
So John McCain is admitting that the Iraq war is all about oil? Is that why he wants us there for the next hundred years, then?

Wow--that's a pretty radical piece of energy strategising.
Why "prevent" exactly? Sort of implies that the country might be stopped from doing something it really wants to do.
Or is he speaking in himself right now?
Time for a gold watch, a firm handshake, and a meaningful "goodbye."
And could he take the Clintons with him?

Naw. No-one really wants to, and I quote, "send our young men and women into conflict again in the Middle East." So preventing us from doing it would be a good thing.
Of course, he neglects to mention all the people who want to send everyone else's young men and women into conflict in the Middle East. And they're a pretty powerful lobbying group....
