But, unlike those of us who thought the invasion itself was a stupid idea, he wanted to go in with many more troops. That could have been effective to accomplish whatever objective he had in mind, but it had one fatal flaw -- we don't HAVE that many troops. And we won't, unless the draft is reinstated. As far as his claim that the surge is working, he is just using the dog and pony shows to justify his position. Same old, same old.

Comment by saneamerican — September 11, 2007 @ 10:42 pm Mcinsane was tortured in a North Vietnamese prison and he is not about to forget it. Would you like to be bombed? What would you do to a captured airplane pilot who has just dropped a 500 lb bomb on your family? Would you be kind to him? He went to Vietnam a few years ago and instead of apologizing he justified his role in the Vietman War. That's who he is! McCain is completely deluded and needs to be taken by the men in white suits.
