The Old Man Is Off His Meds

Dear The Village:  Can we stop taking John McCain seriously now?

John McCain has a plan for North Korea. To deal with the impudent northern half of the Korean Peninsula, McCain suggested yesterday that it might be time to dig into the Bush administration playbook for the Middle East, circa 2003. On CNN's State Of The Union, McCain called for "regime change" in Pyongyang as soon as possible -- though he didn't say how exactly anyone would go about it.

One option appears to be off the table in McCain's mind, a military strike like the one America used the last time "regime change" was bandied about by high-profile Republicans.

"I think it's time we talked about regime change in North Korea," McCain told CNN's Candy Crowley, "and I do not mean military action, but I do believe that this is a very unstable regime."

To recap, the McCain plan for North Korea:

  1. Get tough with Pyongyang.
  2. ???
  3. Regime change!

I mean honestly, he's not even worth having on the Sunday shows for unintentional comedy value anymore.  He's just a sad old man.
