Absolute lie. Like the rest of the DC Old Boy's club. McCain wanted to Americanize the war and send in 250,000 US troops.
The surge Strategy is wholly the product of Don Rumsfeild unwavering support for the Iraqis and Gen Petrau's genius. Rummy's only mistake was to underestimate how long it would take to actually get the Iraq forces up to speed. McCain did NOTHING but squeal like a stuck pig for the Leftist Media.
The success of the "Surge" is a refutation the McCain doctrine.
Bullcrap he got on rummy and bush big time over thier handling of this war
