Ex-top soldier: Iraq war 'fiasco' due to Rumsfeld's 'lies'

Ricks also reports that Shelton has less-than-kind words for Sen. John
McCain, who Shelton writes "had a screw loose because normal people just
didn't behave in that manner."

In another part of the memoir, Shelton asserts that "[t]he John McCain that
I knew was subject to wild mood swings and would break into erratic temper
tantrums in the middle of a normal conversation."

Shelton's book goes on sale on Friday.

No wonder. How many years was he a prisoner of war again?
