We never learn! We get starry eyed and into big trouble.
To me the question isn’t whether we should consult with our allies before taking international action, we should if only to be courteous to their opinions and maybe see something we overlooked (being thorough), it is whether a commander in chief has the will to take that action unilaterally if he/she believes we are right even though our “allies” think otherwise.
Whoa, McCain is past prime time, he is overcooked. So far he is a liberal dream. He wants approval in his old age, he gets it from the MSM and liberals.
Okay, MacCainiacs, is Andrew McCarthy also on George Soros's payroll?

I am quite convinced that McCain would be a lousy President, but I WILL NEVER vote for the black racist coward, Obama.
Really the article is irrelevant. The question now is will you or I like a McCain foreign policy more than an Obama foreign policy. Those are the choices.
Or in terms of the article, what matters now is is McCain more ready for prime time comander-in-chief than Obama.
Tom DeLay said that McCain over the years has done more to thwart the conservative movement then any other person.
For this reason and the fact that nothing he says he’ll do in his tenure will he be able to complete.
I refuse to reward him for his 8 years of smacking dowb conservative’s.
He is no conservative.
His immigration policy will require HUGE tax increases, I mean HUGE.
He will not be able to appoint conservative judges because the congress will not approve them. He’ll need to cut a deal and appoint someone Teddy likes.
His energy policy will cost jobs, and a huge increase in prices.
I cannot vote for McCain, the more I hear him speak the more I know that I won’t.
This story has no relevance right now.
The only related question right now that matters is:
Which of the two presidential nominees, SnObama or McLame, is more “ready for prime time”?
CAMPAIGN SLOGAN!!! ;)
(snip)National-security issues, which McCain sees as one of his strongest points, may end up being his Achilles' heel. Already there is concern among his conservative friends that McCain may lack the disposition to command, showing an uncertain sense of purpose and outright bad political judgment.
"What's the first thing you would do as president?" the Detroit News recently asked McCain.
"The first thing I would do," the candidate answered, "is call in John Kerry, Bob Kerrey, Joe Biden, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Henry Kissinger, Dick Lugar, Chuck Hagel and several others and say we've got to get foreign-policy, national-security issues back on track."
That statement ricocheted through cyberspace, with Washington national-security experts wondering, "Is McCain nuts?" The formula doesn't compute:
What and Shrillary or Obama are?
McCain, Obama, Barr, Nader -
Those appear to be the choices with Barr nor Nader having a snowball’s chance in hell.
So the writer doesn’t like Bush’s second term. Bush seems to have kept the writer and his loved ones safe (along with mojito and his) - obviously a thankless job.
McCain will make a superb Commander in Chief.
Screw them.
Obama: "I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems, ....I will not weaponize space... I will slow development of future combat systems... I will institute a 'Defense Priorities Board' to ensure the quadrennial defense review is not used ..."
Then, there will be peace in our time without the evil republicans causing war!
My change is good for Muslims, Islamofascists, Black Racists, and Chrislims. $crew the Christians and real Jews!
