McCain: In The 21st Century Nations Don't Invade Other Nations

[Benny B]

 

Speaking to reporters about the situation in Georgia, Sen. John McCain denounced the aggressive posture of Russia by claiming that:"in the 21st century nations don't invade other nations."

It was the type of foreign policy rhetorical blunder that has regularly plagued the McCain campaign and could have diplomatic ripples as well. Certainly the comment was meant in innocence. But for those predisposed to the notion that the U.S. is an increasingly arrogant international actor, the suggestion by a presidential candidate that, in this day and age, countries don't invade one another -- when the U.S. is occupying two foreign nations -- does little to alleviate that negative perception.

What a buffoon.

Some kid mark Kerr on the main board was telling me the war in IRaq had NOTHING to do with oil.


There are still people that misinformed, blind, or just in denial about things.

Even Bush admits it's about oil - Dec 2006 in the rose garden.  yet some people still spout this nonsense.



this mccain example is another piece that these blind turds can repeat and feel good about themselves.  They're spreading war to help Iraqis, so they're going to heaven.  Libs hate war so they hate jesus.
