Who’s the foreign policy expert?
Pick the quote from the autumn of 2002 and tell me who you think has a better grasp of world affairs:
“I am very certain that this military engagement will not be very difficult.”
– John McCain on CNN, September 12, 2002.
or:
“I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a US occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of al-Qaeda.
“I am not opposed to all wars. I’m opposed to dumb wars.”
– Barack Obama speech, Oct. 2, 2002
Just sayin’.
