Kenneth T. Tellis: McCain trying to look like somebody by putting in his two bits!

VHeadline commentarist Kenneth T. Tellis writes: John McCain is trying to look like a somebody ... when actually he is a played-out nobody!

Here is a U.S. Navy pilot who bombed villages in VIETNAM, wreaking havoc and terror on unarmed civilians, calling FARC a terrorist group. But he adds fuel to fire by saying that the belligerent in this, Colombia, is a vital ally of the U.S.

Naturally, Colombia is a vital ally of the U.S. since Colombia is bombing Ecuador, just like the U.S. is boming cities and villages in Iraq and Afghanistan killing countless civilian without let-up. For this, he has his ally George W. Bush to thank.

Why shouldn't Venezuela and Ecuador send their troops to the Colombian border to defend their countries from Colombian attacks?

• According to McCain, since Colombia is an American vassal state, it should be protected, even if if violates international law. That has to be a joke.

Why doesn't John McCain, that played-out former U.S. Naval pilot, just call it quits and forget about even the presidency, because he will never make it.

Say, John McCain, are you back to the bottle again, trying to get a backbone?

Well, it's too late old chap ... just leave the election to the young lads of today and go right back to your Rocking Chair ... its where you really belong.
