McCain's Grasp Of The Obvious

CNN reports that John McCain called Jimmy Carter a "lousy" commander in chief.

In an interview with the Las Vegas Sun published Friday, McCain, who is a proponent of nuclear reprocessing, was asked why he thought Carter was against the process when he was president.

"Yes, because Carter was a lousy president," McCain quipped. "This is the same guy who kissed Brezhnev."

McCain's comments are in reference to the now famous moment when Carter and then Soviet Union leader Leonid Brezhnev kissed after signing the SALT II treaty in 1979.

The evidence of how bad Carter was as president is voluminous...still I'm thankful that McCain is willing to state the obvious.
