"NAIVE AND DELUSIONAL"

McCain's supporters have tried to protray Obama as naive and delusional about the war on terror. They are wrong. It's McCain who's naive and delusional. (h/t Atrios) Paul Waldman of the American Prospect caught this nonsense from McCain:
In May of 2006, as Iraq spiraled down into an orgy of sectarian bloodletting, John McCain had a solution. "One of the things I would do if I were president," McCain told a group of wealthy contributors, "would be to sit the Shiites and the Sunnis down and say, 'Stop the bullshit.'"

Maybe McCain is just going thru the motions, knowing the neocons don't demand too much consistency or honesty. Strata today:

"But what gets me is the coordinated act of suppressing the news. We are talking about a 90% drop off in news from Iraq since events started to go well there and dispel the erroneous speculation of the SurrenderMedia and their political masters - the Surrendercrats. It is no accident all three major networks (and all major liberal print news sources I would wager) have tried to cover up what is happening in Iraq. Clearly this industry wide conspiracy is not coincidence - how could it be?

Of course Strata makes no mention of the fact civilian casualties in Iraq are still at 2005-6 levels or more poignantly
