"In Iraq our national security interests and our national values converge. Iraq is truly the test of a generation, for America and for our role in the world," says Senator John McCain, Andrew Sullivan's pick for "Quote of the Day I" this morning:
Faced with similar challenges, previous generations of Americans have passed such tests with honor. It is now our turn to demonstrate that our power, ennobled by our principles, is the greatest force for good on earth today. Iraq's transformation into a secure democracy and a force for freedom in the greater Middle East is the calling of our age. We can succeed. We must succeed.
Ooooh. Goosebumps. We like John McCain when he's not running for president.
