Does anyone with serious diplomatic experience think “bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran” is a statement a real EXPERIENCED and QUALIFIED statesman would ever make?

If that is what Mccain’s “experience” has taught him, to
flippantly taunt world leaders and threaten them with destruction, even while our troops are in harm’s way, then he doesn’t deserve the vote of anyone, let alone our veterans.

Reminds me of Bush’s “bring em’ on” stupidity, how can you possibly attribute leadership, especially world diplomacy, to big little boys who act like schoolyard bullies, and get our troops killed in the process.

These guys make our whole military image look like a big, stupid, clumsy blind cyclops, swinging at fleas with billion dollar baseball bats and breaking our own bones in the process.

McCain’s no statesman, and no diplomat and he’s no world leader. He’s just another blind, obsessively ambitious pawn of the no-bid, easy-money profiteers who build those billion-dollar bludgeons.

BTW, there’s a Marine Corps vet running for Iowa’s 4th Congressional district who has really suffered at the hands of our lousy system, his name is William J. Meyers, and he needs some support, his website is at http://www.meyersforhouse.com. His story of dealing with the broken VA system is, tragically, too often repeated across the whole country.

He has shown a lot of courage to get out and campaign day after day, facing opposition by three much more well-heeled primary candidates. If he manages to win, he goes on to face Tom Latham, a Delay era clone whose voting record would make any citizen, veteran or otherwise, cringe at the abject betrayal the Republicans have displayed towards our veterans throughout their bloody tenure.

I’m not a vet myself, but I really feel for William, and after reading his story, I have tried to help in whenever possible. He’s one of many vets running for office, and they are doing something we should all be proud of.
