CNN's Ware Dismisses McSame

So McSame says Barack should go with him to Iraq to get a firsthand view of "success"? I'm sure the escorted Blackhawk, kevlar and tank visit really gives you insights into what having no water and electricity is like. CNN's Michael Ware, who has the best nose on TV, said that U.S. officials’ trips to Iraq are usually “divorced from reality” adding that its “impossible” to “get much of a real picture.” Ware then noted that McCain’s own trips to Iraq have not helped him get a sense of the realities in Iraq:

WARE: I’ll issue a word of caution, too. I mean Senator McCain has been here, what, more than half a dozen times. And we’ve seen him get assessments of Iraq terribly wrong. So I wouldn’t be hanging my hat on the fact that your opponent has only been here once.

Video and more here.

That's what is great about being old like McCain, you see your own reality, senility is bliss for him. Hey Cheerleader Johnny, have any of your trips to Iraq resulted in saving American lives or shortening the occupation in Iraq? Your six visits have amounted to Jack Squat. Dog and pony show paid by US tax dollars.
