I didn't quite understand what you were conveying, here DT.

I don't believe in dialoguing with rogue nations. It makes us seem weak and we don't want that. It's a diplomatic stance that every country's rulers understand. Sanctions is our strong no-talk diplomacy.

Isn't that funny how McCain points out that Obama is criticizing Iraq, but hasn't visited in two years? NOW, Obama is scheduling going this summer and when will that be? - when he needs the polls to reflect a higher rating for him and especially before August!

We should be reminded that McCain was caught in a series of lies about his Iraq visit.

Nobody is going to convince radical Islamic extremists to like us. These extremists use inflammatory rhetoric and propaganda to inflame the citizens of the Middle East. This causes considerable social destabilization in many countries. More moderate Islamic nations need to be courted by the U.S. and we need to help them realize that we’re looking out for their survival. For example Islamic extremists would love to destabilize and take over the more moderate nation of Jordan. We do well to talk to Jordan and strengthen ties with them. This will both protect our interests and protect the governments that are moderate from falling into radical Islamic hands.

You can’t broker peace or build a case for war unless talks have been conducted. Standards of Just War require talking and diplomacy before the last resort of war is used.

I think Bush had really hurt McCain's chances of winning. If Obama becomes President...thank Bush.

We had a Tornado in Missouri a couple weeks ago, thank Bush for that too.

But not the way Clinton involved our Military with the UN.
