Obama adviser Susan Rice: “This is yet one further indication of his striking lack of appreciation of the burden Iraq is putting on our military.”

Plus: Sen. Biden: Comment shows McCain is “totally out of touch with the needs of our troops and the national security needs of our nation.” Read his statement.
