McCain: "Nations don't invade other nations"

Wed Aug 13, 2008 at 03:30:57 PM PST

To his increasing embarrassment, John McCain's aggressive demands for immediate confrontation with Russia in the Caucasus have been left high and dry by Russia's willingness to call a truce once it had humiliated the belligerent Georgian President. Today as he tried to justify his foreign 'policy' adventurism to reporters, John McCain made a rather startling pronouncement. As so often, McCain was taking his cue from his other inept ally, George Bush. Said McCain:

"In the 21st century, nations don’t invade other nations."

So does that pronouncement disqualify McCain for the presidency? Or just disqualify him to speak about his own 'policy' toward Iraq?
