The Real McCain

Headline: McCain hammers Obama on security.
Behind the headline: Apparently John McCain finds fault in Obama’s comment that he would talk to our adversaries. McCain sees this as a sign of weakness and a signal that Obama would yield to appeasement-the failed policy that was attempted by European leaders with Hitler.
The truth is McCain’s analogy is grossly lacking in logic. Obama has made it very clear that talk is just that-talk. While talking he would continue fighting terrorism where we should have been all along-Afghanistan & Pakistan. Apparently McCain thinks the Bush/Cheney approach to world diplomacy (my way or the highway) has been effective and therefore he would continue it if he were elected. So how’s that been working out, nation???? Let’s face it. Given McCain’s position on various issues over the years and especially over recent months, it’s clear this guy is an old George Bush. The really sad part is that there are many who consider that preferable to either of the other two choices. Here we go again!
