Not only is John McCain not practicing straight-talk, he is engaging in sheer, and perhaps even deranged hypocrisy!
Not only did he have the gall to accuse Mitt Romney of wanting to set timetables, he did so after having talked himself about setting benchmarks!
One does not find the word "timetable" in this piece, but the intent is clear:
McCain said Thursday that he hadn't yet decided on precise benchmarks. "They'd have to be specific, and they (Iraqi government officials) would have to meet them," he said.
It is beyond me how benchmarks of any kind can be useful except by being associated with particular dates on a calendar, which would of course turn the list of benchmarks into a timetable!
The dishonesty practiced by this man is absolutely appalling!
