Micromanage this

It's a dangerous thing when a member of Congress tries to micro-manage foreign policy. When someone decides that they know better than the Commander in Chief, America is weakened, especially when the subject is the Middle East.

The danger for the country is compounded when the member of Congress meets with people some might consider enemies, even more so when that member of Congress does not have all the facts straight.

Some have even suggested that a member of Congress who visits a country in the Middle East is a traitor, and while we don't agree with that statement, it's clear that John McCain needs to stop meddling in things he doesn't understand.
