What's really lame about this argument that falsely pretends there is a "liberal change" is that the White House administration KNEW THE TRUTH.
They KNEW that they could NOT tell us the truth about what this war would be like, cause otherwise we WOULD NOT GO ALONG WITH IT.
THAT is why they hyped the claims on "WMDs" and "al Qaeda" connections, cause they knew if they went with the "let's liberate Iraqis for $1-2 trillion" argument, IT WOULD HAVE FAILED.
And to claim that a "$1-2 trillion" price tag is about GREED??????
I would find it hilarious if you were in a position of giving McCain's speaking points, cause you would THEN get to see exactly how fast his popularity would plummet if he tried saying junk like this!
