...might be that guy between the two armed soldiers wearing the bulletproof vest who claims that Iraq is 'safe'. Sully is right to question McCain's sanity, while the NYTimes does a more traditional job of making the Senator look foolish:"A day after members of an American Congressional delegation led by Senator John McCain pointed to their brief visit to Baghdad’s central market as evidence that the new security plan for the city was working, the merchants there were incredulous about the Americans’ conclusions.
“What are they talking about?” Ali Jassim Faiyad, the owner of an electrical appliances shop in the market, said Monday. “The security procedures were abnormal!...“They paralyzed the market when they came,” Mr. Faiyad said during an interview in his shop on Monday. “This was only for the media.”
"He added, “This will not change anything.”"
Dressing up a grave situation to look good for the cameras...does that remind you of anyone?
