3. Yeah, but McCain bolstered the Iraqi Economy

This is what General Patraeus said about McCain when asked about this subject on the News Hour:

"Yep, there was security there, but he was out --
actually he helped the Iraqi economy quite a bit, bought a number of carpets, in fact. And he haggled with the merchants himself,
with an interpreter, and was moving all around very freely."
