Ha ha ha bless your soul


Yesterday morning, John "Escalatio" McCain appeared on Meet the Press, to discuss the Iraq War, the upcoming Presidential campaign, and to receive the "Most appearances on Meet the Press" award, a contest in which he barely beat out his closest competitor, Tim Russert.

At any rate, McCain delivered his support for upcoming surge in troops with the enthusiasm of a coma patient, possibly because he is realizing that hey, maybe 20,000 troops won't do anything except result in a couple hundred of them dying, and that he's going to be lassoed with it when he starts running hard for the Presidential nomination. Towards the end of his segment, he reiterated what I believe is the most hilarious rational for continuing our engagement in Iraq: if we leave, Al Queda and the terrorists will follow us home.

How stupid does the Republican Party believe Americans are? There are about a million reasons why we have to succeed, in some form, in Iraq -- millions of Iraqi's could die, Iran could exert military and political influence, etc... and you pick the reason that sounds like you're narrating a public service announcement for kids so they don't get kidnapped?

A quick note: The terrorists know where we live! They attacked us a bunch of times.
