Reply #8: I actually agree w/McCain

[Charlie Brown]

I just don't think it's consistent with his position.

"should we lose this war, our defeat will further destabilize an already volatile and dangerous region, strengthen the threat of terrorism and unleash furies that will assail us for a very long time. I believe the benefits of success will justify the costs and risks we have incurred."

If all this gloom and doom is true (I think it's crap), why encourage dissent? There's a difference between tolerating dissent and encouraging it, and McCain appears to be encouraging it, which is inconsistent.
