Script of "Timeline" (TV)

ANNOUNCER (v/o): In Chicago, in St. Louis and in Seattle, the American people are demanding a timetable for withdrawal from Iraq.

In Baghdad and Basra and Tikrit, the Iraqi people -- and now the Iraqi prime minister -- are also demanding a timetable.

But John McCain doesn't want a timetable. He'll spend hundreds of billions of dollars more to keep our keep our troops in Iraq for years and years.

John McCain: It's time to end the war. And move on.
