From Media Matters for America:

The AP reported that Sen. John McCain 'said President Bush should not be held responsible for the much-criticized 'Mission Accomplished' banner five years ago', and that McCain said of the banner, 'I thought it was wrong at the time'. But the AP did not report comments McCain made 'at the time' about the banner in a Fox News interview, in which host Neil Cavuto noted that 'many argue the conflict [in Iraq] isn't over', to which McCain replied, 'then why was there a banner that said 'Mission Accomplished' on the aircraft carrier?'

  • Send him home...McCain is out of touch with the American public, reality and the troops.

  • Give him a break. He may be a "flip flopper" and delusional, but I think he had a "senior moment", and just forgot, ha ha.

    Nice photo, looks like he accidentally dipped into his grandson's ecstasy stash, instead of his anti-aggression medicine. =P
  • That's the mug I want to look at for the next 8 years!
