MoveOn Releases New Ad Calling on McCain to Support Iraqi Pullout Timetable

MoveOn.org is seeking donations for a new advertisement in which it criticizes John McCain for not supporting a timetable for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq.

“John McCain doesn’t want a timetable,” a narrator says in the ad. “He’ll spend hundreds of billions of dollars more to keep our troops in Iraq for years and years.”

The narrator adds that Americans and Iraqis, including Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, have expressed support for a withdrawal schedule.

The Republican National Committee responded to the advertisement by saying that the liberal group and its presidential candidate, Barack Obama, have been wrong to oppose the U.S. military surge.
