McCain and Imus...peas in a pod

McCain should have learned form his good friend Imus, whom he unconditionally supports, that speaking off the cuff will have severe repercussions.

McCain replied to a question concerning Iran by singing to the tune of the Beach Boys’ song “Barbara Ann” but altering the lyrics to “Bomb Iran.” McCain laughed and then sang: “Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb ... anyway, ah ...” When asked if the joke was insensitive, McCain said: “Insensitive to what? The Iranians?”

McCain has made the ultimate mistake of grouping the Iranians and their government together, illustrating his limited understanding of foreign affairs. He does not differentiate between the two and supports the wholesale massacre of innocent civilians. McCain’s immature statement only plays into the hands of the Iranian government. Now, Iran can use his statement as justification for building atomic weapons to safeguard itself from American intervention.

America does not need a clown or an insensitive person as president. Over three-fourths of the world’s population has a negative view of the United States. Instead of healing America after the inept diplomacy and Iraq war by Bush, McCain will only fan the flames of negativity burning around the world, increase Iran’s desire to develop atomic bombs, and become a recruitment tool for terrorists.
