Can you believe this? McCain wants Obama to admit he was wrong about surge!
John McCain told fellow veterans on Monday that his Democratic rival Barack Obama tried to legislate failure in Iraq and has refused to admit he erred when opposing the military increase there last year.

Will John McCain admit that he was wrong when he supported an invasion to find weapons of mass destruction that did not exist?

1. That's the point I wish more would make....
You can't pretend to be right on the surge when you voted for the war to begin with. I hope McCain is stupid enough to try to force Obama to apologize during a debate and I hope Obama is smart enough to make this point.

3. It's Not the Sort of Thing They'd Use in a Debate. It is a Talking Point for the MSM to Run With
They will NOT do anything that will allow him any kind of rebuttal.

This is how Swift Boating works.

5. McBombs would be more tyranical than Bush.
This is a clear sign that McWarBoy does not respect differences of opinion even when the evidence is clear. He has brainwashed himself into believing the Splurge was everything and he wants credit for everything when that is quite obviously not the case. The guy is dangerous.

It's his way or on your knees sucka!

6. McBush has his Depends on too tight.
His campaign has morphed into trashing Obama and nothing else. I don't suppose he mentioned to the vets the number of times he voted against funding their healthcare.
