Tested?????

So Sen. McCain would like us to remember that back in the French-Indian War, or back in 1963, when I was exactly one year old, he was willing to obey orders and drop bombs on impoverished people from the safety of a front-line U.S. fighter plane.

So, what, exactly, is McCain trying to say? That he's proven that he's willing to kill people? Um, wow.

More to the point here, if McCain wants me to believe he's passed some sort of leadership "test,' then I've got a few more questions:

- What will he bomb into generating more jobs for Americans who have been reduced to service work, when they can find work?
- What will he bomb to reduce our need for foreign capital to save our banking system?
- What bank is he going to bomb to restore stability to our shattered economy?
- What is he going to bomb that will reduce our federal deficit?
- What country will he bomb to reverse our trade deficits?
- What will he bomb to ensure that the tens of millions of Americans who have no health coverage get it?
- What country do you bomb to restore the U.S.'s decayed manufacturing infrastructure?

I swear, it's the Mike Tyson approach to problem-solving. With apologies to Mike; even he's learned by this point that there are one hell of a lot of problems in life that you just can't bomb into submission.
