Obama hasn't had an original proposal come out of his mouth since being on the campaign trail. The only thing he proposes is Universal Health Care that will leave out what 20 million people so how does that make it universal. LOL People had a chance to vote for someone who can think for herself as the Dem. nominee but they liked the cool dude better. This happened with George W. to they thought of him as sitting down and having a beer with the guy vs. picking someone that can actually lead. Look where we are after 8 years. LOL At least with McCain he has some smarts and original ideas. No lack of experience ya think? Obama hasn't had an original proposal come out of his mouth since being on the campaign trail.

We don't need belligerent rhetoric or promises of more war now. We're tired of the same rush to war of the Bush years. Let's mop up what we started in Iraq and Afghanistan first. I say we get more creative in solving world crises, instead of sending in the brave men and women of our armed forces every time we want something done in the world.

McCain want to stay, if possible, 100 years in a war that has killed and maimed our sons are daughters. Many more are psychologically depressed when they are discharged from the military. The country is financially drained by two wars currently, do we need another war? I think McCain needs some brain food to think before he speaks. We need PEACE NOT MORE WAR!

McCain, an honorable man who understands commitment to our allies, measured his response and responded in kind. Think for a moment he is talking about one of our major allies who had 2,000 + troops alongside ours in Iraq. McCain has stated, just like the rest of us wish, that peace is our goal, diplomacy is first. Nevertheless, this is the world that we live in, and there are certain attitudes that diplomacy alone cannot change. In this case, the anarchical ways of Mr. Putin will not be "negotiated away." That is the reality. This is one of the fundamental differences between the candidates. McCain has the judgment and experience to know when and how to respond to crisis, Obama does not. Obama's sheepish response is what we can all expect as his foreign policy.

But I'm not at all impressed with Condi and Bush and McCain who have nothing more to offer than very empty words and empty threats while thousands are being killed. Obama had pointed out the problems in South Ossentia a month ago - when McCain's only interest would have been what deals he could cut for a jet-skiing buddy? Or business deals for his lobbyist/campaign advisor.
