Cafferty: Is McCain Hypocritical to Condemn Russia?

From the Cafferty File:

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

So says John McCain, as part of his tough talk about Russia's attacks on Georgia. In calling for Russia to get out, McCain says he doesn't think we'll reignite the Cold War, but that you can't justify the "extent and degree" of Russia's intervention in Georgia. The presumptive Republican nominee insists that we need to make sure that in the 21st century, we all have respect for the sovereignty and independence of nations.

Say what? The United States invaded the sovereign nation of Iraq more than 5 years ago. And you, Senator McCain, were all for the idea. You voted for the war, remember? At the time, McCain insisted that the U.S. needed to act before Saddam Hussein could develop more advanced weapons. And since then, McCain has remained steadfast in his support of arguably the biggest foreign policy blunder in the history of this country. At one point, McCain said U-S troops could remain in Iraq, a sovereign nation, for 100 years.

When it comes to punishing Russia for its actions, the Arizona Senator says its potential membership in the World Trade Organization should be reviewed along with its membership in the G-8. He believes an international peacekeeping mission should be sent to Georgia and that NATO should re-consider adding Georgia and Ukraine to the alliance.

Here's my question to you: Is John McCain hypocritical to condemn Russia for invading Georgia when he voted to invade Iraq?

The "small victorious war" of Saakashvili went wrong. However, it did greatly benefit the McCain presidential campaign.

Haha, did you work that out for yourself or did you look at my profile and see that I'm not even out of school yet? YOU need to read, not me. As a matter of fact, nearly every loophole and tax shelter for corporations was done away with back in 1986 under the Reagan administration's tax reform. Also, how do you justify "well deserved"? Who are you to say that somebody making more than 250k who works harder than some idiot running a cash register deserves to be taxed more? Nice try jerk off.

It is so obvious that you are not in the $250,000 and above tax bracket. Anyone under that amount with Obama's plan would get a well deserved tax cut. Bush's tax cuts have made it possible to let the extremely wealthy individuals and corporations find loopholes to pay less than their fair share! How fair is that? Don't just watch the news, read sometimes!

Most people in this world are good people, It's just these bad leaders who cause conflict. Peace mate, we know the raw-deal you guys are getting over there at the moment.
