John McCain hearts wars

Yeah we really want this guy to be president. John McCain loves the war in Iraq and wants to make it bigger. I don't know for sure but I'm betting he feels the same way about the war on some drugs and now he introduced legislation to start a war on bloggers.

He wants to hold bloggers to a higher standard than ISP providers and hold them responsible for what other people post in comment sections and profiles. Of course he claims to be "doing it for the children" but offers no evidence that any children have been harmed by blogger comments.

One suspects a guy who is planning to run for president is more afraid of what truths in the historical record Blogtopia might expose about him. It would be very convenient to shut down the dialogue on the internets for a guy who would prefer to keep what happened in the past, in the past. And to think I felt sorry for the guy when he was swift boated by his own party.
