Is McCain Wrong?

John McCain on the U.S. invasion of Iraq: "We were greeted as liberators. We mishandled the war for nearly four years. We mishandled it in a way that was so harmful that I stood up against it."**

Nevermind that it took McCain a really, really long time to stand up against the Iraq War strategy. He may have even hedged his bets on supporting the surge.

But were we really greeted as liberators?

**McCain quote taken from an interview he did that aired today on "This Week..." McCain also oddly invokes the Oil-For-Food scandal as part of a laundry list of reasons we invaded Iraq. I hadn't heard that reason.

    That’s because the reason for invasion is one of the best kept secrets in Washington.

    With his valuable experience as a POW in Vietnam, if elected, Mr. McCain is sure to achieve victory in Iraq.
