Four More Years...
So Bush endorsed McCain today. Hardly a surprise of course, but he made it offcial. John McCain has now spent 7 full years saying "I disagreed with George Bush then, but he's doing the right thing now."McCain made his bed years ago when he decided to support the Bush presidency, and he should be called to account for that. It is the height of dishonesty for him or anyone else to pretend that McCain was not a key agent in pushing the Bush agenda. Even that rare instance when McCain stood up against the administration on torture last year has been pushed aside in favor of electoral politics. McCain skipped the vote for cloture on the bill to ban waterboarding a few weeks ago, and the bill was successfully blocked by the pro-torture/anti-American Republicans. Cloture failed by one vote.
John McCain: Like Bush, but older.
