McCain is desperate to claim Bush’s mantle for the failed Iraqi misadventure.
Interesting bit at Think Progress reveals more truth than perhaps McCain intended.
NBC’s Nightly News provided further details about McCain’s one-hour guided tour. He was accompanied by “100 American soldiers, with three Blackhawk helicopters, and two Apache gunships overhead.” Still photographs provided by the military to NBC News seemed to show McCain wearing a bulletproof vest during his visit.
Bulletproof vest, indeed.
