John McBush is determined to run on the biggest disaster in American history: Iraq.
On 1/3, he told David Corn, U.S. troops could be in Iraq for "a thousand years" or "a million years," as far as he was concerned. On 1/5, he told Face The Nation, "I don't think Americans are concerned if we're there for one hundred years or a thousand years or ten thousand years." Last week he told reporters, "Anyone who worries about how long we're in Iraq does not understand the military."
Of course, anyone who understands the military knows the Iraq catastrophe has broken it.
This weekend, the GOP's biggest donors got a strategy briefing in Beverly Hills from Karl Rove & Co., focused on how to attack Obama. Not surprisingly, their main attack is: "He is not ready to be commander in chief."
As Bush has made abundantly clear, the Commander in Chief does not make decisions about military strategy and tactics - that's entirely up to generals like Saint Petraeus.
Rather, the Commander in Chief makes the crucial decision about whether to go to war or not.
On Iraq, George Bush made the wrong decision - and so did John McCain. But Barack Obama made the right decision.
By opposing the senseless and disastrous invasion of Iraq, Barack Obama proved he is ready to be Commander in Chief - and John McCain proved he is not.
