John Warner is against the war in Iraq and he sleeps better knowing the anti-war crowd is about to bring the Americans scuttling home. Surrender is an odd sleep aid for an ex-Marine. Probably something borrowed from John Murtha's prescription bottle. John Kerry is eager to stop the war he helped start so the rest of the world will think better of us. Mr. Kerry worries a lot about what America's critics think of us. He has been in Davos taking the waters and communing with the critics of America at the World Economic Forum. Someone asked him why the United States failed to deal with Iran before the seriously creepy Mahmoud Ahmadinejad took over two years ago. The John Paul Jones of the Vietnam War took that as his cue to get a lot of things off his manly chest, none of them an answer to the man's question about Iran. "When we walk away from global warming, Kyoto, when we are irresponsibly slow in moving towards AIDS in Africa, when we don't advance and live up to our own rhetoric and standards," said the man who voted against ratification of the Kyoto treaty, "we send a terrible message of duplicity and hypocrisy. So we have a crisis of confidence in the Middle East -- in the world, really. I've never seen our country as isolated, as much as a sort of international pariah for a number of reasons as it is today." Once upon a time, an American politician, especially a politician who had been nominated for president of the United States, would not have dreamed of trashing his country abroad, of calling his country a pariah any time, anywhere.

Talking to the bigshots to convince them to hire him as the next POTUS. Good luck, F'n...
What the hell happened to Warner?
They are the King George on the modern era.
When we say, "Give me libery or give me death," we know which one it will be if they have any say so.

You cannot blame poor Jon Carry. He learned this tactic from the best ex-presidents around; Jimmah Carta and BJ K'Toon.
I don't know. He says he's going to run for re-election in 2008. He's pretty old. I'm not sure whether he's in the same age stratosphere as Frank Lautenberg, but he's very old. Some think he will wait until just before the filing deadline and step aside for another "moderate," making it impossible for a true conservative to get into the race.
He's running for re-election in '08 and Webb's election scared him.
Warner, Murtha and Kerry ~ Perfect together.
Warner needs to be put in a home maybe next to Senator Johnson neither are lucid but Warner is dangerous and loose.
Somebody needs to remind Warner that he only becamse Senator by accident.
Any possibility of a real conservative candidate for that seat?
Not if he stays in it until the last minute. If he runs again, he'll be safe.
Be afraid. Be very afraid. Your "leaders" are more concerned about what will be said over a glass of Glenfiddich at 7 PM then they are about national security or a few grunts in the desert.
Thanks for the ping, Justa, good article.
It's particularly maddening to think about what Murtha has become vs. Hanoi Jane.
She made no bones about what she is her entire life until she lied about being sorry for what she did. Last Saturday she only confirmed she is a liar as well as a traitor.
Murtha on the other hand served his country at one time. Maybe he had other motives when he did serve and maybe he didn't but he served.
It didn't take him long to become a thoroughly corrupt politician after he was elected to office and now he has turned on our military and our country with his despicable actions, specifically with his words and actions directed at the Haditha Marines and the distorted picture he paints of the war in Iraq.
It would be hard to pick which one is a bigger traitor to our country, Fonda or Murtha.
