McCain More Full of Shit Than Previously Suspected

John McCain demonstrated this week that he is even more full of shit than you previously thought. Speaking before an assembly of members of the VFW, Mr. McCain stated that we are no longer staring into the abyss of defeat in Iraq. That statement alone wouldn’t have resonated as complete horseshit, if McCain had immediately followed it with an intimation that we were actually staring OUT of the abyss that we have so obviously been in since the disasterously ill-advised invasion of the country in 2003. McCain did not offer any such intimations. Instead he suggested that we are close to success. Well, at least he suggested that there is such a thing as success in Iraq, which is utter and unabashed nonsense.

McCain even offered a cursory definition of what success in Iraq might look like. He said, “success in Iraq is the establishment of a generally peaceful, stable, prosperous, democratic state that poses no threat to its neighbors and contributes to the defeat of terrorists.” He then continued with a bunch of other bull crap about personal and religious freedoms and the ability for regular Iraqis to live a normal life. McCain was not seen winking or shaking his head following the comments. Neither did he close his statements with a pause and then ‘not!’ or ‘psych!’ indicating that he is either an unrepentant bald-faced liar or an absolute idiot.

McCain has visited the country on numerous occasions since we the people allowed (and even supported) the mean-spirited imbecile who stole the White House from president Gore to invade. Sources inside the McCain campaign who are responsible for explaining the utter blather that pours from their candidates mouth suggested that Mr. McCain may have had his eyes closed the entire time he was in Iraq. That, they suggested, would mean that he is not lying about the quagmire of violence and destruction from which the country will never recover, but he is simply ignorant of it. There is ample evidence, however, that Mr. McCain did have his eyes open on at least one of his visits to the country, even if they were only open for the time it took for the film crews and photographers to capture Mr. McCain looking at stuff.
