JedReport's Latest Devastating Video: "McCain's Neverending War"

One of the key components of the McCain hagiography, besides the downed planes and the wife-swapping is that he was a fearsome critic of the way President George W. Bush and Donald Rumsfeld prosecuted the Iraq War. OH! How he HATED it! Hated it something fierce! But then John McCain bravely authored the philosophy of the idea of the notion of the strategy that became known as the SURGE! And then, somehow, it became totally okay to hire one of the architects of the Rumsfeld plan as his foreign policy advisor.

Am I trying to say that there are some inconsistencies in McCain's backstory on Iraq? Uhm, yyyyyyyyyeeeeeessssss. And now Jed Lewison of JedReport.com has just released his latest video, an extremely comprehensive collection of McCain clips (never-before-seen for most people) which chart the Arizona Senator's position on Iraq over the last several years, and puncture one of the candidates central contentions.

Lewison writes:

My newest video features John McCain talking about the Iraq war from 2002 through the present, exposing -- in his own words -- the lie behind his claim that he was the war's "greatest critic." It demonstrates his chilling commitment to fighting this war no matter what the people of America -- or Iraq -- want.

It is long -- nine minutes, thirty seconds -- but much of the material it contains will likely be new to you...and devastating to McCain.

Take a look:

Just remember if this guy is elected he will have control of our nukes!!!!!!!!?????????

[avalanch112]

makes my head hurt when i watch this and then think of all the people that dont know about it.

[SEQUOIABISON]

Brilliantly done.

It clearly depicts the simple truth about McCain that he is a mindless, bitter, angry old man who never met a war he did not wholeheartedly embrace.

It is difficult to imagine but I think this uninspiring senior citizen has lost all sense of reason and is far more dangerous than even W.

Good one Jason! Thanks for bringing Lewison's video to us. Keeping us informed of other stories out there is what makes The Huffington Post THE alternative to getting our news from the Corrupted Corporate Media.

I used to get most of my news from various news related modules I have on my Yahoo home page. I have a module there for The Huffington Post as well. BUT, lately I find myself spending most of my limited time for getting my news by reading the Huffington posts and comments. I feel better informed and in addition, reading comments from other readers gives me a more well rounded vision of the subject matter.

One more thing - GO TO THE OBAMA WEBSITE AND DONATE! If you haven't visited his site you will be impressed with how he understands that the Internet drives his message home. BUT, if you really want to feel good about being an informed patriotic American citizen, make a donation on your debit or credit card! Even a $10 or $20 donation will make you feel you did the right thing for our country. We Must fund Obama's drive for the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!

The more I listen to McCain's discourse, the more he sounds like a Roman Emperor.

[SouthernYankeeBelle]

The more I listen I see and hear Bush III administration. Republicans are praying he makes it so he can coverup the mistakes this administration has made.

[Joeblue]

Nothing to worry about, I heard on Oberman last night that Obama has no intention to charge Bush and company with crimes.

[serialcoma]

McCain "disagrees withe the majority of American people" by his own admission...he has no business being any sort of "public servant".

[Proud2BIndy]

Exactly.

[thirteen13]

McCain is not a public servant, he is servant to Republicans. Like Chaney said "so?".

[rabprevent]

THIS COUNTRY IS FULL OF IMBECILES AND WILL VOTE FOR THIS STUPID LITTLE MAN, PLEASE PASS THIS VIDEO TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN TO HELP SPREAD THE MESSAGE THAT THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS MAN AND SHOULD NOT BE ELECTED TO ANY OFFICE, NOT EVEN THE POST OFFICE.

I second that. For Mccain to state he is a Partriotic American and yet don't feel it is important to hear what the majority of Americans are saying is rude and disgraceful. How come Faux News and CNN are pumping this McCain up. Do they have familes, I mean young children who would want to live in a better World?. What is going on? Mccain is DELUTIONAL. I have seen this case of Mental health Problems before. Wake up People. Don't trust this Man with the RED button. He will blow us all up. RUN and vote for Peace and Unity in Nov. Do the Right Thing. thousands have died needlessly already because of a fabricated war. If Mccain wins. God Help us. He will NUKE everyone. And then claim it's a mistake. C'mon people forget about what Party you belong to. Think and vote for OBAMA. The facts are all in your face. Use it wisely. (silent prayer)... Oh God If Obama win's I promise I will be a very very good person .. Ok God seriously .. I promised. McCain is scarying me. Thanks Huffingonpost. You ROCK.

This man is a thousand times more dangerous to our country than Bush.
He has the same obsession but he is indifferent to what any one says including
what he himself has says. He lies with such ease he is frightening.

[ThoughtAboutIt]

I understand your point but short of nuking the lower 48, I'm not sure any US President could be "a thousand times more dangerous than Bush". Give Bush his due. He has been quite destructive in every way imaginable.

If the Rethugs manage to steal a 3rd presidential election in a row we may see the martial law framework that Bush/Cheney put in place utilized to the extreme to quell violent protests.

[Proud2BIndy]

To McCain and his ilk "peace" is simply not an option. Ever.

[WFV]

I, for one, am speechless.

[Obamlatina]

Jed PLEASE submit your video to someone/organization (e.g. moveon?) to air your video nationally, especially the red states. Just wishful thinking...

[biffer]

Jed...You are the man!

[Hare]

Why on earth does he even have a chance at the presidential table? He has no clue as to what he is saying, is always napping at the wrong times, doesn't know the geography of the places he is suppose to be sending troops to. What is wrong with Americans that think he is even electable?

[TNT2008]

Here's another Video to be handed out at the Republican convention in September!

Can you say Flip Flop? Next this warmonger, if he is elected, will be declaring war on the American citizens! His desire to be a dictator is chilling!
