NY Times McCain Hit Piece





Once again the NY Times is showing it's true colors with the latest cheap shot against Senator McCain. Over at Hot Air, Ed Morrissey takes a look at what they're trying to pull now. In this junk journalism episode, they're now questioning whether Senator McCain's particular Vietnam experience is the reason why he (wrongly in their eyes) supports the War in Iraq.

In the New York Times’ upcoming edition of their Sunday magazine, they take a look at John McCain’s divergent views of the Iraq War from those of his fellow Vietnam veterans. In The McCain Doctrines, Matt Bai reports that most of these colleagues (with the noted exception of Bob Kerrey) attribute McCain’s support for Iraq to the fact that he didn’t serve on the ground in Vietnam — and that his years as a POW somehow “sealed” him away from the war’s lessons:

It's amazing folks. It's like having a political party war room that sits over there and spends every waking moment wondering how they can subvert McCain's candidacy.
