WWJMD (What Would John McCain Do)
September 12th, 2008 by Cranky Liberal

Well since John spent part of yesterday telling the world how he would have handled September 11th, let’s remind the world what he DID do when our country faced it’s darkest hour.

How about we talk about what McCain actually did do after 9/11 though? Here he was in January 2002:

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) visited the Roosevelt yesterday and shouted, “Next up: Baghdad!” from the carrier’s bridge.

McCain has been pushing the administration to make Iraq and its dictator, Saddam Hussein, the next targets in the war on terrorism.

Pentagon officials and Powell have cautioned against focusing on Baghdad, but McCain said yesterday that Iraq poses “a clear and present danger” to the U.S.

“I think Iraq is going to have to be considered,” he said.

Yep, there he was already invading the wrong country, at the wrong time for the wrong reason. Judgement, leadership, experience, Bush clone. Says it all folks.
