McCain on sticking it out in war.

Crooks and Liars:

At the GOP Debate on Thursday McCain said that setting a date for withdrawal will mean a victory for al Qaeda. ...

...

Yet, when we had a Democrat in the White House McCain repeatedly argued for bringing the troops home regardless of the consequences. ...

...

There you have it. McCain’s newfound surrender-phobia is a partisan fabrication, or else it’s time to question his sanity, or possibly both. In any case, the US most certainly does not need to keep a military presence in Iraq for a 100 or 10,000 more years just so McCain won’t call the troops losers and try to figuratively pin a victory medal on a terrorist group. It’s past time we declare victory (didn’t we already?) and start bringing our troops home. And when we do al Qaeda will have won nada unless some partisan dissembler like McCain tries to declare different.
The wheels came off the Straight-Talk Express a long time ago, so it’s about time the msm began to notice. Even the Moonie Times has begun figuring out what we’ve known all along, that McCain’s so-called ‘straight-talk‘ is anything but.
