would you buy a preemptive war from this man?

July 25, 2008 – 3:01 pm

No? Maybe just a little preemptive strike, then?
Bush has made me so gun-shy that even Obama’s Pax Americana talk is starting to scare me:

July 18, 2008 – 11:46 am

Hillary did us no favors “vetting” Obama for us as long as she did:
