Do any of you remember when John McCain tried to prove that Baghdad was safe by strolling through a market there in a bulletproof vest accompanied by one hundred soldiers, three Blackhawks, and two Apache Gunships? Well, he’s at it again, but this time he went to Syria for like a whole hour or two. Seriously. He was in-country for like 120 minutes. He’s an expert, now.
What a genius this man is! He’s never seen a war that he doesn’t want your son or daughter to fight.
McCain, a leading critic of the Obama administration’s policy towards Syria, has been calling for the U.S. to provide lethal aid to opposition forces seeking the ouster of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Meanwhile, the masters of war are busy at work building the case that the Assad regime is using sarin gas against the rebels. France, of course, has been trying to get the European Union to lift its ban on sending weapons to the Syrian theater of the global war on chaos. They succeeded last night.
Syria used to be a French colony, so I suggest that McCain join their air force and crash their planes for a change. Once he’s a hostage, we can reanimate Ronald Reagan and get him to sell some TOW missiles to Iran in exchange for McCain’s release.
