ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- Sen. John McCain on Saturday said he would "test" enemy countries when elected president, trying to turn Democratic vice presidential nominee Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr.'s gaffe against the Democratic ticket.

"I'm going to test them, they're not going to test me," Mr. McCain told a crowd in Albuquerque.

Last weekend Mr. Biden told campaign donors in Seattle that enemy nations would concoct an international crisis to test Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama: "We're going to have an international crisis to test the mettle of this guy. I guarantee you it's going to happen."

Mr. McCain has seized on that as evidence Mr. Obama would make the country less safe, including devoting much of his campaign stump speech to responding.

YEAH BABY!!! I'm so sick of the feckless wonders who always worry what "they may do", whether the "they" are our enemies, foreign or domestic. You should be on offense and BE MAKING THEM WORRY ABOUT WHAT YOU MAY DO!
