Commenting in an article about Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) foreign policy advisers, Iraq war apologist Michael O’Hanlon insisted McCain has been “proven right” on Iraq:
I don’t think they’re neocons. I think they’re pragmatists because they’ve been right. He (McCain) himself has been proven right about Iraq, and so on Iraq, I think you can say McCain has a strong track record.
O’Hanlon is hardly known for being a tough critic, considering he gave his own record on Iraq “a score of 7 out of 10.” Despite the right-wing’s constant attempt to declare Bush “right” on Iraq, McCain’s record doesn’t lie.
