2. My 19 year old godson just arrived in Afghanistan for his first tour of duty.
He got sent to the Korengal Valley in northeast Afghanistan in the Kunar province where the 9 troops got killed the other week. I don't believe he thinks it is bush league, but it should be a place for bush and the other chickenhawks.

3. is it a slip? or a REALLY BIG slip
I have a feeling that McCain was privy to the plans that shrub had for invading Iraq before 9/11 even happened. In his mind it was already happening because he fully believed it would be implemented.

4. In McCain's twisted and increasingly senile mind, the invasion of Afghanistan never happened!
Can we risk having this old fart with his finger on the nuclear button?

5. He also said:
I'd prefer to wait to make a speech on foreign soil until after I was president, but that's a judgement call.

Um....the dumbass did; in Colombia and Canada.
