Reckless John

John McCain is reckless by any measure . He was talking about bombing Iraq shortly after 9/11, and we did. We all know that was a mistake, but let me highlight how it has harmed our national security. It's put us in serious debt to the Chinese. It is a debt which continues to grow and continues to pose a grave threat to national security. Recall what happened to Russia? Nobody kicked their butts. They went broke spending all their money in Afghanistan and trying to keep up with the Star Wars program they thought we were developing. Anyone see any similarity to what we are doing in Iraq? 10 Billion plus a month. Money well spent?

This is part of the reason we have taken our eye of the ball in Afghanistan and Bin Laden roams free. This is part of the reason that we have alienated many our former allies around the world. We spent all the money. Oil company and defense contractor executives have gotten rich off the back of the American people along with the Saudis and the Chinese. There is a finite supply of money, we have less of it now, and we are less secure for it. McCain and Palin want to keep the money flowing out of the National Treasury and into the hands of these thieves. Sound reckless?

McCain has also made tasteless jokes about bombing Iran. The last time he started joking aboug bombing another country it happened and we're still paying for it. Now there is no denying that he will always be a national hero for his suffering in Vietnam. He is an incredibly tough guy and has shown the ability to live through just about anything. They say that if you are dumb you have to be tough to survive, and no one is tought than John McCain. I'm sure he would survive if not thrive during a McCain presidency, but the rest of us might fare to well through it.
