McCain still doesn't get it...never will



Nearing his end, Senator John McCain, admits that the Iraq war was a 'mistake', telling Politico "“I came out of the Vietnam War convinced that frankly we could have won, and we had it won... just as I believed we had the Iraq conflict won after the surge — and for which I sacrificed everything, including my presidential ambitions, that it would succeed.”

All those bombs he dropped on innocents fifty years ago and all those Iraqis killed 15 years ago still hasn't made a dent in McCain's conscience. He still champions the murderous and criminal Vietnam and Iraq wars as honorable wars only lost because of stupid leaders who lost their nerve to triumph over avoidable defeat. McCain's incessant warmongering against Russia, Iran, North Korea and others since our failure in Iraq and Afghanistan is a pox on America's soul and an extreme threat to world peace.

We must neither honor nor revere leaders who have spent their entire career fighting in and promoting senseless war. We must call them out for their warmongering, vote them out of Congress, and hold them up to the derision and ridicule they deserve.
