Discussion for article #226185
Current events-wise, I can only think back one week, two weeks tops. Remind me who negotiated the withdraw from Iraq? Was it George somebody?
Better head: “McCain Shames McCain (Again)”
McCain is the most reflexive critic of the administration. Yes, John - you lost - get over it and just be quiet.
Republican memes have lost credibility with me.
Time to get out my kids fairy tale books and read them instead of the news in this country anymore. Even Goldilocks has more integrity and insight than the news networks. Why do they allow these people to go unchallenged? Oh that’s right they are the propaganda wings of the GOPTP, truth and news no longer have anything to do with it. Once upon a time…
How foolish and wrong over the years do you fucking have to be before you’re discredited in the eyes of the cable news talkers and the bookers who bring guests on?
McCain is an ignorant fool … see McCain’s pick of Sarah Palin as VP for evidence.
Other than demand young Americans be sent to fight in foreign lands - anyone - anywhere - what has John McCain done for his country in the past 14 years?
Read “The Emperor’s New Clothes.” That’s all anyone needs to know about why this man is talking on TV.
what a bitter old shit! can’t we all move on and leave this embarrassment to wander about his many mansions cursing the name, Obama?
To quote the new [and ever more used] cliché; for the corporate news media, being foolish and wrong is “a feature and not a bug”.
wrong mcgoo
we should never have been in iraq,bush should never have been seated by the supreme court
In comparison, compare McCain’s statement with the more circumspect views of David Miliband, the British Foreign Secretary under Tony Blair:
Meanwhile, the former foreign secretary, David Miliband, speaking in the Observer, acknowledged that the 2003 invasion of Iraq had contributed to the country’s current disintegration and mounting crisis at the hands of Islamist militants.
Miliband, expressing fresh regret over Britain’s involvement in the war, admitted that the outcome of the war in Iraq “induces a high degree of humility”.
“It’s clearly the case that the invasion of Iraq, or more importantly what happened afterwards, is a significant factor in understanding the current situation in the country,” said Miliband, during a wide-ranging interview in New York.
The remarks on the crisis by Miliband, now the president and chief executive of the International Rescue Committee, a humanitarian charity, contrast with those offered by Tony Blair, his political mentor, who has strongly rejected claims that the 2003 US-UK invasion is to blame for the terrorism gripping Iraq.

Of course the first thing the media does is run to their President, McCain, to spew his ignorance about Iraq.
“…There’s a vacuum of American leadership all throughout the Middle East…”
Deep down, Republicans devoutly believe government is the solution – there and here.
Why does US media give McCain so much attention?
It takes nothing less than “Shock and Awe” for Walnuts to get his war boner up. Or a horse pill of Viagra.
You and your convenient facts
