"No, wait, let me keep talking."
With conditions
deteriorating in Iraq—because of the actions of Iraqi President Maliki and the Iraqi government and the Iraqi military and the Iraqi insurgents and the Iraqi religious factions—Republican Sen. John "Wannabe President" McCain, thwarted in his dream to have U.S. troops in Iraq for
100 years, is making the media rounds to blame it all on President Obama.
“The president wanted out and now we are paying a heavy price,” the Arizona Republican said on MSNBC.
"We had it won," McCain said. The U.S. "had the conflict won thanks to the surge … We had a stable government."
The only people stupid enough to think we ever had this war "won" were the same ones who predicted we'd "absolutely" be greeted as liberators, who thought the war would be paid for by Iraqi oil, who thought the Sunnis and Shia would "get along," who declared the war would "be brief," and that of course Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. Oh, wait, what was that Sen. McCain?
Shut. Up.
