John McCain: ‘Everything I’ve predicted … has come true’

By Steve Benen

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) has reason to be pleased with his recent promotion. In the wake of the 2014 midterm elections, his party is not only in control of the Senate, but the Arizona Republican is now chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, a post he’s reportedly wanted for quite a while.

But when the senator looks around the world, he isn’t pleased at all.

“We are probably in the most serious period of turmoil in our lifetime,” said the 78-year-old Republican from Arizona, whose control of the committee is the culmination of decades of tenacious advocacy for a muscular foreign policy. “Everything I’ve predicted, unfortunately, has come true, whether it be in Iraq or whether it be Syria.”

The notion that all of John McCain’s predictions have “come true” isn’t just a bizarre boast, it’s also laughably and demonstrably untrue. As Rachel put it on the show awhile back, “Let the record show, John McCain was wrong about Iraq and the war in Iraq in almost every way that a person can be wrong about something like that.”

3. We are all Georgians and Ukrainians now. We could've won Vietnam if those

damn libruls hadn't made us lose. The Surge fixed Iraq. Let's get rid of Qaddafi! And so on, and so on, and so forth...

4. Brought on by Bush's invasion of Iraq - as many SCHOLARS had PREDICTED.

Why don't you invite those scholars to appear in front of your committee, Senator McCain. You can discuss how RIGHT you are about everything with them.

5. Does that POS ever give up trying to convince people he is intelligent?

If he wasn't such a total asshole, he might actually be likable.

6. Can we leave the ageism out of this?

8. Did he predict invading Iraq was going to open turmoil all over the

Middle East? Isn't it funny the GOP wants to forget it was Bush who invaded Iraq and was the one who negotiated the troop withdrawal along with failing to negotiate our troops a by if they should get into trouble. My, my how soon they forget.

9. He just gets sadder and sadder.
