Hey LabGuy,
I never called them "clones", nor did I suggest Dubya & McCain were
even "the same"...I was simply pointing out that Bush had to say
something "semi-poz" when Rummy went out to lobby/write memoirs...

McCain, at the time, was caught up in his "maybe the war isn't going
like it could/should" mode and, as a Senator, even on the Rep side,
he could join the pile on, search for the "guilty" and make those
remarks.

Methinks you are overly agitated from too many politico "news"
sound bites and arm wrestles...little of this current crap is going
to change or, make the country/world a "better place", imo.
