McCain: The Iraqis are not asking for a timetable for withdrawal

What better way for someone not to have to deal with a subject than say it is not true! Amazing.

He said in an interview on July 9, 2008:

Q: Senator, with Iraqi leaders now calling for a timetable for U.S. troop withdrawals–

McCAIN: Actually, the Iraqis are not. The Iraqis were widely reported as short a time ago as a couple of weeks ago that there would be no status of forces agreement, and Maliki would say that, and it got headlines, and of course it turned out not to be true.

In John's spin, what he is saying is this; But they did not say timetables. They said obvious and specific dates for the withdrawl of foreign troops from Iraq. You see nothing was said about timetables!
