Obviously the old war horse has been shocked out of his political nuttiness of the last few years. Put him back in uniform and give im a division or two.

Pakistan has a legitimate interest in who rules its chronically unstable eastern neighbor.

Not to be too picky, but isn't Afghanistan Pakistan's western neighbor?

So what makes you think he wasn't speaking about India? They haven't been a shining example of stability either. None of the countries in that region are.

Finally he's shown himself willing to be part of the Republican (and American) team.

I think you are being slickly dupped. Biden is yinging Bush for a 'bombing letup', while McCain is yanging him for a 'bombing increase'. It's the ole double wammy , preplanned, which is dammed if you do and dammed if you don't.

These guys should be wamming the 'funtamenta Muslims' and stop attacking Bush by sending surreptitious trial balloons.

Outstanding article by Senator McCain. He is exactly right. I believe this is the Bush administration position. Tactics, political as well as military, need to be employed, but the goal, and the steps needed to achieve that goal, are clearly stated by McCain.

There is no avoiding the war we are in today, any more than we could have avoided world war after our fleet was bombed at Pearl Harbor.

Hey. Wait a minute!
Pat Buchanan vehemently disagrees with that statement.
