For The Record

Just for the record, the media (and John McCain) have it wrong .... again .... still.

In the recent Shiite dust-up in Iraq, it was Maliki subordinates who undermined Maliki and sued for peace, via Iran, with al Sadr. McCain and the media are incorrectly claiming that al Sadr sought the ceasefire.

It really is astounding that with hundreds of thousands of lives and trillions of dollars on the line, our intrepid media is clueless about the politics of the middle east. Simply using google would clear up a lot of errors. But then they might not get invited for those delicious cocktail weenie parties.
