McCain's rejected op-ed peice...

Now, dangit, I read the rejected NYT editorial and there was nothing wrong with it!!! It was McCain's opinion on how we need to win the war in Iraq. It did not really contain anything new as we know where the Senator stands and where Senator Obama stands.

Yes, I know McCain's article criticized Senator Obama's approach to Iraq. So what? It also talked about how McCain wanted to succeed there and how Obama was ignoring the facts on the ground. So?

McCain was encouraged to resubmit the piece. I think the reason stated was for him to talk more about his ideas and have less criticism of Obama. But it comes across to me as censorship of McCain's views by the liberal New York Times. Gosh, don't they have enough liberal columnists to counter Senator McCain's editorial???

Personally, I'm not sure exactly what the truth is about Iraq. Some improvements have occurred for sure. In fact it has improved to the degree that the Iraqi government is now talking about U.S. forces leaving at some point. So this all could be a mute point IF things go well.
