In fact, Matt Welch made a convincing trigger-happy argument against McCain in Reason magazine - a libertarian publication - cataloging all the times over the past 20 years that McCain has overreacted to international crises, down to his recent ridiculous statement that the situation in Georgia was "the first probably serious...
