With Enemies Like These…
Uh-oh. Looks like The Republican Who Isn’t Crazy™ has made another remark that questions Bush’s sovereignty :
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., is launching perhaps his harshest attack yet on his own party and his gushiest praise of Democrats.“I believe my party has gone astray,” McCain said yesterday, singling out GOP stands on environmental issues and racial set-asides.
“I think the Democratic party is a fine party, and I have no problems with it, in their views and their philosophy,” he said. “But I also feel the Republican Party can be brought back to the principles I articulated before.”
And he took another shot at President Bush. “You can’t fly in on an aircraft carrier and declare victory and have the deaths continue. You can’t do that.”
Where did McCain make his remarks? As the Boston Herald reported today, at a “legislative seminar” hosted by U.S. Rep. Marty Meehan, D-Mass., who just happens to be one of the biggest Bush bashers in Congress.
“Many people in this room question, legitimately, whether we should have gone in or not,” McCain said, adding that Iraq “will be part of this presidential campaign.”
Before we get too impressed, lemme reiterate my stand that McCain should not be Kerry’s veep choice. Here’s why.
