"AIDING & ABETTING" reads the headline over Sen. John McCain's op-ed in today's NY Post. But I'll be damned if I can find that rather incendiary phrase anywhere in the actual text. Which leads one to wonder: Did McCain (or his people) write that headline? Or did somebody at the Post just stick those unpleasant words in the senator's mouth? And if it's the latter, shouldn't Sen. McCain step out in front of the cameras at some point today and say so? (Via Glenn Reynolds.)

UPDATE: McCain just called the headline "outrageous" on MSNBC's Hardball.

Good. He's right.
