Default McCain Endangers General Petraeus

Earlier today I watched Senator McCain on CNN as he told the world (and the Iraqi resistance) that the Commander of the US Armed Forces in Iraq, General Petraeus, drives around Baghdad in an unarmoured Humvee. What an idiot!

Think, for a moment, what the reaction would be if Hillary had blurted this out.

It's not as if anyone setting out to kill Gen. Petraeus wouldn't figure out what kind of vehicle he drives.

More to the point, McCain was simply wrong. And foolish. And then he backtracked.

McCain really isn't to be taken seriously; he's been wrong and alarmist and weak-spined on so many things over the last couple of years that he's going to get tied in knots. If Republicans nominate him they'll essentially be ceding the presidency to whomever the Democrats put up.

Default I never liked ole Maverick

He's not Presidential material. He probably won't even get nominated. If he does, as ray says... Democrats win.

On a side note:

Apot,
You're slipping old man. When you start threads here, you need to post a link to your source.

I do when I have 'em.
I was watching McCain on CNN International at the Gym when he shined on about the General. I was nearly thrown from the treadmill.

Default ?

LIKE DEMOCRATS CARE ABOUT GENERAL PATREAUS.

The Democrat leadership won't even fund him or his troops as they fight a war.

Thanks for the chuckle of the day, Dems

I just thought it was funny......Dems on this forum pretending to care about General Patreaus when they support their leaders NOT funding him and his troops. You don't think that a bit ironic?

All I see was that Apopto posted something that was said foolishly by McCAIN. McCAIN withdrew his foolishacity.

Raytri has just stated that what poor John said was foolish.

Dems have said that they approve funding but want accoutability. You know something like thwe NO CHILD LEFT ON HIS BEHIND - where the teachers/admins are supposedly being held to accountability

Then Apotro said tha he was almost thrown from the threadmill. A near tragedy avoided I am sure !!!
