One of the chief credentials of a vice presidential nominee is partisan toughness; you've got to be a credible attack dog against the opposing presidential candidate. Today, in the second speech Sen. Joe Biden has delivered on the topic, he lit into... heck, he bit into, his own friend, Sen. John...
Talking is not surrender, and a foreign policy that is mostly stick and little talk isn't much of a policy. From the Journal Sentinel Americans should be grateful for the ongoing dust-up on foreign policy between presidential candidates John McCain and Barack Obama. But given that another major...
The leftosphere is up in arms over John McCain “lying” about Barack Obama’s stated intentions vis-a-vis Iran. The latest source of righteous outrage comes courtesy of a Joel Klein interview with McCain: At a press conference here, I just asked John McCain about why he keeps talking about Obama’s...
You’ve obviously heard that the president, speaking in Israel last week, used the word “appeasement” in describing the wishes of “some” to engage Iran. White House officials floated beforehand that Barack Obama was definitely included in that “some.” Who says that Bush is no longer of any use to...
John McCain and Democrat Barack Obama squared off in a heated war of words yesterday over how to deal with Iran in a sure forerunner to a national security debate set to dominate their exchanges in the months ahead in the race for the White House. A military hawk, Senator McCain accused Senator...

Obama's rapid response to the "talk to Iran/talk to Hamas flap" was smart stuff. If you missed it, yesterday Obama asked what McCain was so scared of, given, for example, that Presidents Reagan and Nixon et al talked to the fully nuked up Soviets. This is fine-tuned campaigning from a Democrat....
Time's Joe Klein is out to prove that McCain is lying about Obama's position on negotiating with Iran, and doesn't know who is running the country.He wrote: On Friday, I promised to check into whether Obama had ever said that he would negotiate--specifically, by name--with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad....
I don’t often link to the Huffington Post but today I’m going to make two exceptions. Today, there’s an awful lot of strutting and high-fiving over a supposed foreign-policy gaffe that John McCain made. Here’s the “gaffe” in a nutshell: It seems the only way the neoconservatives are able to...
Two thoughts on the Obama-Iran-appeasement controversy: 1. It seems to me that it’s a victory for Obama. The Iran debate is being defined as one of diplomatic engagement versus diplomatic isolation, with Obama presenting himself as the bearer of a new strategy while McCain is portrayed as...
