Yeah. As opposed to you Dumbyasses - who knew exactly how your stupid invasion of Iraq would turn out!

"The ISG Report seemed like great news for John McCain. He could call for more troops in Iraq, confident that Bush would finally listen to calls to plan for withdrawal. That way, when people asked on the campaign trail about Iraq, McCain could say, "well, had they listened to me and added more troops, we would've won."

Unfortunately for McCain, Bush is leaning toward the "double down" strategy. And when it fails, McCain won't have any cover.

[...]

Bush is completely and hopelessly lost. Daddy once again sent the grownups to bail him out of yet another one of his messes, yet this time he gave poppy the middle finger. And McCain is about to see his bluff called.

McCain knows damn well that Iraq is lost. He knows doubling down won't do squat to improve the situation. He's playing GOP primary politics. The last thing he needs is for Bush to take his politics-driven advice."
