WASHINGTON - Gaining ground this political season is a proposed League of Democracies designed to strengthen support for the next president's overseas agenda and ensure a global leadership role for the United States.
John McCain, the virtually certain Republican presidential nominee, has endorsed the concept of a new global compact of more than 100 democratic countries to advance shared views and has discussed the idea with French and British leaders.
"It could act where the U.N. fails to act," he said last month, and pressure tyrants "with or without Moscow's and Beijing's approval."
Analysts at think tanks in Washington and elsewhere envision a league focused on maintaining peace and limiting U.S. military intervention, such as the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq.
"Maintaining peace and limiting U.S. intervention". What a bunch of crap. Here we go again. Just because the tyrants in Washington, London, and Canberra are not getting their way 100% of the time, these fascists have a new plan that's being touted to do one thing but in truth does the exact opposite. Okay, US, UK, and Australia, go to it. Let us see how well you do when Red China, North Vietnam, North Korea, Russia, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Cuba, and Venezuela, just to mention a few, set up their own League of Nations. I mean we're not doing all that well against a few goat herders in Iraq as it is, and we got our butts kicked up around our necks by the North Vietnamese. To all who want to follow this old fool McCain into WWIII, you just might want to reflect on the fact that he didn't do very well as a warrior. He lost his aircraft, got captured, and then failed miserably to comply with Article III of the United States Code of Military Conduct by lying like a worm and singing like a bird in a POW camp for years.
