...his views garner the respect they deserve.

You know, lately, there is a lot of talk about our economy (and rightly so) and how we have a clear choice going forward. What has lately been out of the spotlight...or uncovered by media...is the stark choice we also face on foreign policy. GWB dug us into a financial hole, which will take us YEARS to dig out of. But he and Cheney also dug us into a foreign policy hole. President Obama, together with Biden and Kerry are moving mountains to turn this country around since GWB's foreign policy caused so much damage. Rebuild trust around the world...as JK said "We need a few friends in the world." Going back to Bush policies under a Republican administration would be DISASTROUS...for our country and the rest of the world.

I am grateful that the Senator continues to give voice to our foreign policy and national security issues. I just hope people will finally start to listen to him.
