McCain, a friend of Kerry and a fellow Vietnam War veteran, refused to join the Kerry bashing and said he was “fortunate” to call many Democrats his friends.
But he defended the war in Iraq, saying that even if Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein did not have weapons of mass destruction, the stated reason for going to war, “he would have acquired them again.”
“Our choice wasn’t between a benign status quo and the bloodshed of war. It was between war and a graver threat,” he said. “Only the most deluded of us could doubt the necessity of this war.”
McCain drew the night’s biggest response with his reference to “a disingenuous filmmaker who would have us believe that Saddam’s Iraq was an oasis of peace.”
