Oh give me a break .. that's exactly what a Democrat wants to do .. invade a country when he's not even sure of its capabilities and whether or not it poses a serious threat. Its obvious that he wants to boost his poll ratings. Why would he even bring Pakistan into the picture when everyone else is talking about Iran/Saudi/Etc... he wants to show that he's just what America needs because he's "thinking outside of the box" ... he wants to prove that he believes Bush made the right decision in the wrong place... but he just doesn't see how illogical it sounds.sergeriver wrote:
US presidential candidate Barack Obama has said he would order military action against al-Qaeda in Pakistan without the consent of Pakistan's government.
In his speech at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, in Washington, Mr Obama said General Pervez Musharraf, Pakistan's president, must do more to end terrorist operations in his country. If not, Pakistan would risk a troop invasion and the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars of US aid during an Obama presidency, the candidate said.
Even if this does score him extra points and he does get elected in he won't be able to take military action anywhere without the backing of Congress unless another serious tragedy bigger than that of 9/11 occurs...

He doesn't realize that he didn't gain anything but worldwide crit when he mindlessly said that.
