The Boston Globe questions McCain’s constant chastising of Middle East adversaries by saying they don’t embrace our “Judea-christian values”: At the end of a long list of reasons to be suspicious of the Iranians, McCain declared: “And they sure don’t share our Judeo-Christian values.” It seemed at the time to be an odd thing to […]
