Question for Sen. McCain

Back when he was Ambassador to Iraq and one of the chief salesmen of the Surge, Ryan Crocker told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee "We are buying time at a cost of the lives of our soldiers."
We have now bought just a little more than five years at the cost of a little more than 4,000 lives, not counting the tens of thousands of maimed. How much time would you like to buy, Senator? And how many lives are you willing to pay?
