1) McCain is an idiot.
2) Ware is way mouthy.
It was incredibly silly of McCain to claim that the Baghdad market was safe. And it was a bit much for Ware to say that McCain is living in "Neverland". But that’s Ware. Last year he said that Condi lived in a make-believe world, too.
I’m surprised it’s taken the right-wing blogs and media this long to mount their attack on him. They hate Ware so the only natural thing to do is accuse him of being an alcoholic. Sensible?
Other facts:
1) Ware is a war correspondent.
2) Ware is Australian;
so, of course, he drinks. I wouldn’t doubt that at all. And if he does? What of it? It’s such a cheap shot to attack someone’s character because you don’t like his reporting. Lame.
A journalist shouldn't become a story. Ware didn't ask for this.
Ware has a terrible nervous habit of laughing a bit at inappropriate times. A lot of people do this, but a guy in his position shouldn’t. It is too open to misinterpretation.
The right-wingers are so busy hating Ware that they’ve missed the point that, much to my dismay, Ware agrees with Bush. He thinks if the US pulled out now it would be a disaster. I don’t like to hear him say that, but I trust him enough to believe that he believes that is the truth. He’s there, I’m not.
I still trust and respect Ware.
McCain’s campaign is dead and not a moment too soon. He’ll never recover from this.

Well, what did McCain think he was doing over there? And if it is so safe, why the bullet proof vest? Oh, I've missed all this controversy about Ware - which blogs?- thankfully Ware is telling it like it is - somebody has too. I read an article that said McCain doesn't have as much campaign money as the other candidates - surely that will mean the end of his candidacy rather than silly stunts in Iraq?
However, are McCain's antics seen as bad as Nancy Pelosi visiting the Middle East? Fox News have had a field day with that one.
You can go to Google blogs and search for Ware. There's a bunch of stuff about how he allegedly giggled during McCain's press conference. This story was quickly shown to be false. Ware's no shrinking violet, though. He fought back immediately.
I've seen enough - McCain makes a dick of himself in Baghdad and so someone else is set up to provide a distraction from that.
I agree, Ware was used as a distraction from the fact that McCain made an idiot of himself. Ware is still The Man in Iraq- if he said that frogs rained down from the sky, I'd believe him...
