If you were not so blindly partisan, Whomod, you would see that I was constructively critical of the Iraq war from the beginning.
Not "blindly supportive" of Bush. Less critical than you, but still critical and guardedly optimistic that these hurdles could be overcome. And it took 5 years, but they finally were.

I felt from the beginning that we didn't go in with enough troops, and that we should have conducted the war as the generals wanted it fought, not as the civilian leadership did.

But at the same time, I felt that liberal criticism has consistently hidden the victories we've made, building schools, hospitals, and in every way, a more open and modern state.
UNREPORTED: a real estate boom in Iraq over the last year, brought on by the new security Iraqis feel in the wake of the Surge.
UNREPORTED: Anuual economic growth of about 10% a year, bringing with it jobs and huge spikes in annual earnings.

It has been a very unusual war, and it has required repeated adaptations on the part of our military to deal with those changes.

We weren't fighting just Iraqi resistance, but a foreign Al Qaida leadership that was organizing Iraqi resistance, of Iraqis that wouldn't be able to resist our occupation otherwise.
Then Al Qaida sucessfully blew up a sacred Shia mosque and killed hundreds, that finally sparked ethnic cleansing and a civil war, separate from the fight against Al Qaida. That's Iraqis killing iraqis, NOT Iraqis killed by U.S. forces.

You posted a bunch of soundbyted quotes obviously collected at some partisan spin site, which I'm confident don't reflect the full context of what McCain actually said.

AGAIN:
McCain has pressed for more troops in Iraq from the beginning, and he began pressing for Rumsfeld's removal early on. McCain also criticized the Bush administration for under-estimating the cost of reconstruction, but he also acknowledged that there's no way we could have known how bad the infrastructure in Iraq had been allowed to deteriorate under Saddam Hussein. Much of the reconstruction was not war damage, but simply schools, hospitals and civilian infrastructure that had been neglected for decades under Saddam.

You label that at "blindly supporting Bush". I label his quoted remarks as being passively supportive, while pressing Bush on the most important and changeable aspects of the war strategy (i.e., CONSTRUCTIVELY criticizing Bush, and pushing for change from within the party)

Here's an interview of McCain I posted earlier, from PBS News Hour, on November 6, 2003:
