Obama cuts McCain some slack

Regarding the issue addressed by The Rascal here, Democrat Barack Obama has come to the defense of Republican John McCain, who said last night that the lives of U.S. troops have been "wasted" in Iraq.

Those lives have, in fact, been wasted, and neither Obama nor McCain should have to apologize for saying so. (Although, McCain should have to explain his hawkish position on the war, which he strangely qualifies from time to time with criticisms of the Bush administration's policies in Iraq.)
