“”We need to listen—WE NEED TO LISTEN—to the views and respect the collective will of our democratic allies,” McCain said. “When we believe international action is necessary, whether military, economic, or diplomatic, we will try to persuade our friends that we are right. But we, in return, must be willing to be persuaded by them.””

Does this mean when (not if) we’re attacted, we must get permission before we defend ourselves?

It’s not enough that he wants to kiss up to liberals in our own gov’t. He’s already puckering up to do the same thing around the world.

...so, if we are right and other nations will not be persuaded to do what is right...then we do nothing, or do what is wrong so we can show that we are willing to be persuaded by them?

That's what it sounds like to me...

Our ONLY hope at this point is for McCain to pick a CONSERVATIVE running mate (ie. Duncan Hunter) and at the same time RESIGN from the race which will allow Duncan Hunter to pick an appropriate running mate..
