More McCain Nonsense

Regular readers of this blog (I'm sure there are a few of you out there) will be aware that we're not very fond of John McCain. This past Thursday, McCain gave a big speech on the war at the Virginia Military Institute. The central theme is that we need to prolong the war indefinitely because any strategy that hints at withdrawal or redeploying forces would pretty much lead to the end of the world. But this was my favorite bit:

For the first time in four years, we have a strategy that deals with how things really are in Iraq and not how we wish them to be.

Gee! Given that McCain thinks the past four years have been marked by unrealistic Pollyannish platitudes, I'm sure glad he went to such great lengths to unseat the architect of that failed strategy back in 2004. Oh wait...
