Since Atrios says John McCain is worse than Bashar al-Assad.
Several Hours 
I have no idea what the point of John McCain going to Syria is, though at least now his conspicuous absence from the Sunday shows has been explained. 
I'm sure he's an expert now.

I remember a time when the liberal-left or some of it at least was concerned about humanitarian disasters and the fates of foreigners.  I see the humanitarian disaster in Syria as not just a pre-text for war and as worse than John McCain or the Republicans.

If you just read DeLong, Yglesias, or Krugman you would never know there's an ongoing disaster in Syria which is spreading.
