Two Headlines = Three Possibilities for McCain

From these two headlines we can safely assume that either:

1. John McCain is an idiot.
2. John McCain thinks all of us are idiots.
3. John McCain is completely out to lunch with no grasp on reality.

Which John McCain would you consider voting for?

Fighting intensifies in Iraq's capital

BAGHDAD -- Three more U.S. troops were killed Monday as Iraqis struggled to bury their dead amid fierce street battles between Shiite Muslim militias and Iraqi and American soldiers in the nation's capital.

In one of the most intense days of fighting here involving U.S. troops in recent months, American helicopters fired at least four Hellfire missiles and an Air Force jet dropped a bomb on a suspected militia target. Rockets and missiles launched from militia strongholds pounded U.S. bases around the city, where U.S. troops also came under fire from small arms and rocket-propelled grenades. Targets included the Green Zone, where the U.S. Embassy and most Iraqi government buildings are located.
