December 2006: Senator McCain and our armed forces



A post from December 2006:

As I said before, Sen. McCain is not perfect for conservatives. He has done some weird things, such as that position that he took on GITMO detainees. However, he is perfect on the big things. I love his position on the Iraq Report.

On Friday, Sen. McCain said this:

"There's only one thing worse than an overstressed Army and Marine Corps, and that's a defeated Army and Marine Corps...We saw that in 1973. And I believe that this is a recipe that will lead to, sooner or later, our defeat in Iraq."
This is Sen. McCain at his best, a leader who is not afraid to stand up to "feel good" polls.
