Today during his appearance at the Associated Press’s annual meeting, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) was asked if he was “open to diverting troops from Iraq to Afghanistan” in order to catch Osama bin Laden.” McCain replied, “I would not do that unless General Petraeus said that he felt that the situation called for that.” Watch it:
But as the Army Times points out, Petraeus has nothing to do with the decision to move troops to Afghanistan:
Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain of Arizona may not have been paying the closest of attention last week during hearings on the Bush administration’s Iraq policy. […]
Petraeus, however, made clear last week that he has nothing to do with the decision. Testifying last week before four congressional committees, including the Senate Armed Services Committee on which McCain is the ranking Republican, Petraeus said the decision about whether troops could be shifted from Iraq to Afghanistan was not his responsibility because his portfolio is limited to the multi-national force in Iraq.

McSame is the worst name dropper in history. Whenever he’s confronted with a question which would normally require a detailed answer he starts listing names. Bob Dole, Graham Rudman, blah, blah, blah… IMO McCain is an inferior type human being. Blood made of vinegar and urine.

Capt Caveman – you might be surprised to learn McSame’s fellow prisoners do not speak so highly of him as he speaks of them.

THere is no marine hero stories. THey are disillusioned kids brainwashed into killing machines. Hero stories are fairy tales so you can pick your sides in devils wars. War is deception, if you wanna be a hero save a cat from the tree because everyone knows that finger on the cock is more moral then finger on the trigger.

Ya, that’s the way it went down! Just like Hillary dodging bullets while taking flowers from an 8yr old! Does that mean if I write or say something you’d believe it?

Did McCain say, “General Betray us?” as in betray us, the citizens of the United States, or betray US, as in the United States?
April 16th, 2008 at 6:33 pm
Is that some type of POW code he uses to pronounce Petraeus, “Betray us”?

McCain never correctly identified the Sunnis from the Shiites at Iraq and mistook our friendlies for the enemies, and this latest stunt tells me that he is duff, and is in no position to occupy the Executive branch of our U.S. Federal government! -Al Koppel.
