Question for the Day:

If the Middle East is John McCain’s Strong Suit,

How Well Would he Fare on Any Other Subject?



Remember, he’s been to Iraq eight times and he still
can’t seem to get it right. He couldn’t even keep up
with a college blogger.

What can you conclude: Either he’s a liar, misguided, uncaring about details or simply
Out of touch, or suffering a memory disease? Or maybe a combination of the above.

None of the above might be so bad, were it not for the fact that our presidents are responsible for formulating policy.

\How do you formulate policy if you don’t understand the players,
How they evolved, and can’t arrive at a realistic appraisal of events.

What’s more, the people are going to raise more than Iraq when they address the problems de jour.

In addition to the War, the real problems we are having in this country has
To do with finance and the economy, health care and jobs, housing and honesty in business.

How is John going to deal with these things when he admits that he doesn’t understand them?
.
If John thinks he understands the Middle East, how will he address areas he doesn’t have a clue about?
.

Makes you wonder, doesn’t it.

Bill Clinton was a real policy wonk.

Even Nixon was a policy wonk.


Bush’s dad didn’t know what a scanner was.

Like father, like son—except Bush Sr. had some common sense and listened to the people who advised him….
\

To have twelve years of presidents who don’t understand the difference between up and down, is not only unprecedented, it also seems to rush us along the pathway to self destruction.

Looking at the last eight years, I’m convinced that this government is out of control and couldn’t care less.

And if it’s the people you are concerned about, the depths of our concern cannot even be calculated under this blind, willful administration.

Nevertheless, I am sure that the old republican party will stand by their man despite the fact that his lack of knowledge is appalling.

And the rest of us will suffer if he somehow manages to win either by hook or crook….

Never underestimate the republican spin machine….
