Richardson: The World Is On Fire
Cross-posted at Washington For Richardson.
Yesterday, Governor Richardson posted the first of what I'm sure are many diaries over at Daily Kos.
Yesterday Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist said"We're for staying the course in Iraq and the war on terror."Governor Richardson understands that which the GOP leadership in Washington, D.C. can't seem to fathom: the status quo is
But as the world faces crises on multiple fronts - from oil prices to Lebanon, Iraq to North Korea - it is time for our country to chart a new course. The threats of nuclear proliferation, terrorism, and international Jihadism grow daily. Our great military, bogged down in Iraq, cannot meet every threat alone.
It is time for a new realism in our foreign policy.
It is time to use our military as a last resort, not a first option.
It is time for a rebirth of American diplomacy, to win back friends and isolate our enemies.
unacceptable. Stay the course is not working. It's time for a change.

I enjoyed getting this on e-mail.
I'm glad to see Richardson get involved online. I think he is starting to understand the good things that come from making your presence known online.
I'm looking forward to seeing this blog I keep hearing of appear on his re-election website. Once he gets that moving, I imagine he'll be able to push forward even more with greater recognition.

The world is on fire, and Governor Richardson has the the insider/outsider background we need. He is an insider by virtue of his experience. As someone outside the federal government and current crisis, he can see what is happening, and see that it is very, very bad.

(and yes, we know that sometimes they're very, very wrong. Other times, they're right on.)
