Wall Street Journal’s Peggy Noonan on Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) last week (i.e., pre-”bomb, bomb Iran“):
On Wednesday John McCain distinguished himself with a closely argued and eloquent address in which he spoke seriously and at length of his position on Iraq. He said America faces “an historic choice” with “ramifications for Americans not yet even born.” [...]
My larger point, however, is that he sounded like a serious man addressing a serious issue in a serious way. This makes him at the moment stand out.
Care to amend your remarks Ms. Noonan?
UPDATE: VoteVets chairman Jon Soltz is outraged about McCain’s remarks.
