Iraq – A Success According to McCain

John McCain was saying yesterday how safe Baghdad is now and that even General Petraeus can walk down the streets of Baghdad without security or armor. Of course Michael Ware quickly debunked this latest round of lies from McCain, saying Petraeus travels the streets in a heavily armored Humvee, complete with snipers, other vehicles and attack helicopters.

So how close to success is Iraq? Let’s look at what happened over night:

Shiite militants and police enraged by massive truck bombings in the northwestern town of Tal Afar went on a revenge spree against Sunni residents there Wednesday, killing as many as 60 people, officials said.

The gunmen began roaming Sunni neighborhoods in the city, shooting at residents and homes, according to police and a local Sunni politician.

Ali al-Talafari, a Sunni member of the local Turkomen Front Party, said the Iraqi army had arrested 18 policemen accused of being involved after they were identified by the Sunni families targeted. But he said the attackers included Shiite militiamen.

So this is success – a town where the police go on killing rampages? Well if that is success, I would sure hate to see failure. If this is what a presidential candidate gauges success on, then God help us if we becomes President.
