McCain, bin Laden and the gates of Hell

Posted: Sunday, January 06, 2008 8:47 PM by Domenico Montanaro

From NBC's Bethany Thomas
When touting his foreign policy experience, McCain promised he would go after Bin Laden if he was president.  McCain makes very few promises out on the trail, but that's one that regularly comes up.  When asked, he often says, "I'll get him.  I will follow Bin Laden to the gates of hell and I will get him.  I promise you that."

Uh oh. McCain better prepare for the press releases from Camp Clinton about how naive and inexperienced he is.
Wow, so is McCain saying Bush is not capable, funny how it's undercutting their own party.  
Ok, "I'll get him," by doing what?  Sending more troops to die in his war now, which says his war is better than Bushs' war.
WHAT PART OF NO MORE WAR, DON'T THEY UNDERSTAND?  War has is costing us billions of dollars a month.  we can't get him ticking off that part of the world, we can't continue this bully mentality.  McCain is just that; another bully.
A vote for McCain, is a vote for war...time out guy!
