    Michael Tracey Retweeted POLITICO Magazine

    He ran a presidential campaign, several Senate campaigns, and made countless media appearances arguing exactly the opposite, and yet this will get spun as heroic self-criticism rather than a gargantuan admission of deceptionhttps://twitter.com/POLITICOMag/status/999618545259614208 …

    In his new memoir, John McCain concedes that the war in Iraq he fought so hard to launch and then escalate now “can’t be judged as anything other than a mistake, a very serious one, and I have to accept my share of the blame for it.” https://politi.co/2IyWnjE

        But is he still cool with regime change in Syria and Iran? I suspect so. He gets no sympathy from me. Too much blood on his hands.

        I criticized John McCain during his life, can do so after allowing for a period of mourning after he dies. Never forget the Keating Five and the silencing of the MIA Investigation Commission.

        John McCain's attitude toward wars has not changed since that 'mistake' so he has learned nothing.

        A deathbed confession is only useful if it exonerates someone else.

        The point is WHEN did he realize Iraq was a mistake? Just recently? (to sell books?) Certainly when not President Trump @realDonaldTrump argued the exact same point in his campaign. I don't remember McCain ever agreeing with Trump on that issue.

        Death bed confessions don't mean shit to me. He had his chance to marginally redeem himself, but he choose to dismantle healthcare for his poor and vulnerable constituents he was elected to serve. McCain remains a sociopath and will die one too.

        It can be both, can't it? He admits he was wrong, that takes some guts. On the other hand, he was wrong and that had terrible consequences.

        Rather, a gargantuan deception of an admission. The big lie is lyingly labeled a "serious mistake."

        Heroic self-criticism would be something like "now I realize that imperial war/preemptive war/political war is awful foreign policy."
