Double Talk Express

McCain once supported talking to our adversaries and suddenly has changed his tune.

Collen Powell visits Syria as Secretary of State and McCain defends the move. Hamas over-runs Gaza and McCain suggests that we are going to have to deal with them.

Republicans actually have a history of talking to our enemies. What about the Bush administration talking to Libya (a very rare foreign policy success)? What about Regan talking to the Soviets? What about Nixon going to China?

So why are Bush and McCain now criticizing Obama?

Maybe they have forgotten their own past actions. Maybe they think we do not remember.

I do not like to criticize people for being old, but McCain's age is a serious issue. Making a simple mistake like this for such a MAJOR policy issue that will shape the future of our standing in the World is very SCARY.

Let's pray to God that Americans will not fall prey to the over-simplified attacks and slogans of the Republican slime machine. Being fooled a 3rd time by fools would doom our children to a future of America in decline.

Watch out of the fat man who has been eating too much rich food for the past 8 years, a la Karl Rove, while the rest of us struggle to pay the grocery bill. Watch out for the double talk, do not forget your history.
