Off the Scale

Make sure you've got plenty of bullshit protection...

If stupidity was intelligence, John McCain would've just gotten his Ph.D. (from Hullabaloo):

“One of the things I would do if I were President would be to sit the Shiites and the Sunnis down and say, ‘Stop the bullshit,’” said Mr. McCain, according to Shirley Cloyes DioGuardi, an invitee, and two other guests.

Digby:
It's nice that these tough guys like to pretend that they can rule the world with their impressive codpieces, but I think we've had enough of this impotent GOP posturing. McCain was a very tough guy years ago, but now he's prostituting himself to the rightwing and believing his own hype.

He's also showing just how dumb he really is--as is anyone who thought we'd be able to manufacture some sort of compliant, democratic Iraq--at ANY cost, much less the 20,000 casualties, $300 billion dollars (and counting)...the lost Iraqi lives, our ruined international reputation, and so on.

What a fool's errand.

And McCain's apparently so cravenly obsessed with getting elected president, he's decided to become a fool himself.
