McCain's Cagey "Anti-War" Dissent

My post warning last Sunday about John McCain was reinforced by McCain yesterday. McCain was on a campaign trip to ostensibly help Sen. Mike DeWine in his desperate attempt to get re-elected in Ohio.

McCain used the opportunity to show that he was both against the Iraq War and for it. In a supposedly stinging rebuke of the Bush Administration, McCain rightly accused it of misleading the American people that it would be a "day at the beach." Sounds anti-war doesn't it?

However, he continues to be a staunch defender of the war. His argument is that he can wage the war better. McCain's not "anti-war", he's "more and better war."
