John McCain: I Know How To Catch Bin Laden

Is it just me or is John McCain starting to sound insane?

Last week, John McCain proclaimed that he knew how to win wars. Today, he's taking it a step further, telling voters that he not only knows how to capture and bring to justice Osama bin Laden, but is going to do it.

Appearing on the Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer, the Arizona Republican was reminded that he had vowed to bring Osama bin Laden to justice and was asked how he would differ in that task from President Bush.

Initially saying that he would not "telegraph" the specifics, McCain declared, "Look, I know the area, I've been there, I know wars, I know how to win wars, and I know how to improve our capabilities so that we will capture Osama bin Laden -- or put it this way, bring him to justice... We will do it, I know how to do it."

If he knows how to do it, shouldn't he have passed this information on to the Bush administration already? Or is he holding on to it, threatening not to tell unless he is made President?

Comments like this one are simply bat shit crazy. It's impossible to take a man who speaks this way remotely seriously. Because if we assume, for just a second, that McCain is serious in what he says, then he's either a traitor holding back information for personal political gain, or he's a nut job.

Some reporters were left behind to cover John McCain because the rest of the Washington press corps ascended to heaven in the Barack Obama Rapture. Is it true that Jesus Christ descended from Heaven, accompanied by the Washington press corps and the spirits of all the saints of God (both from the pre-incarnation period and after) who died prior to the Barack Obama Rapture? Or is John McCain a desperate fool?
