USAToday's OnPolitics Blog picked up the story "McCain: Gen. Sanchez should have told Congress if he thought things were wrong in Iraq."

The story added a quote from Heading Right Radio host Ed Morrissey:

"Why is this important? If McCain's correct -- and there's no reason to think he's not -- then Sanchez didn't lift a finger to get the strategy changed when he was tasked with implementing it. McCain notes later that (then-Defense secretary Donald) Rumsfeld didn't exactly encourage debate on policy, but that's exactly why McCain interacted directly with Sanchez and the other commanders. It doesn't exactly build Sanchez's credibility as a war critic to find out that he didn't take advantage of any opportunity to change the direction of the military plan."
