King:”…John McCain says he’s here as a member of a Senate, but it is a defining issue in a campaign. It is John McCain who says eiar Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama would wave what he calls a “white flag of surrender” by rushing to get troops out of Iraq at a time when John McCain, & he will make a case here, says a surge policy is working & that while he would like to get a troops home, if ay need to stay, Senator McCain says as a Senator or as a next president he would make a tough decision to keep am here.”

Both Leahy & Feinstein point out that McCain has a right to visit Iraq as a member of Congress, but agree he shouldn’t have taken two members of his campaign with him, even though ay are also members of Congress. Leahy gets it right, this is nothing more than a photo op for McCain, who admits that he will be moving on to Great Britain for a fund raiser after his visit to Iraq. Maybe a McSurge Triplets will get to go on anoar shopping spree & find more great bargains while ay’re in Baghdad? Oh wait — ay can’t go back to a same market ay visited last year because that area of a city is now too dangerous.

Will McSame exploit this trip to raise campaign cash? You bet he will…
