Gulping Bush’s Kool-Aid

John McCain must be gulping down Bush’s Kool-Aid by the gallon.

According to an Associated Press article: “Republican presidential hopeful John McCain said Monday he fears an offensive by Iraqi insurgents similar to the Tet offensive by the Viet Cong that sent U.S. casualties soaring in Vietnam nearly 40 years ago. McCain, in an interview with The Associated Press, said that it's not the U.S. presence in Iraq that upsets voters but rather the number of casualties and the possibility those numbers could rise.”

The AP article quotes McCain: “A lot of us are also very concerned about the possibility of a Tet Offensive. You know, some large-scale tact that could then switch American public opinion the way that the Tet Offensive did.”

Mr. McCain, I believe your assertion that “it’s not the U.S. presence in Iraq that upsets voters” is delusional at best. The war itself was entirely unjustified; it was based on pack of lies. And our presence there continues to be totally unjustified.

We voters have finally figured that out. And, in case you you haven’t figured it out, that’s why your party lost big time last November.
