While it follows as the night the day that you would use this as well as other posts to badmouth Obama, why not address a more central issue raised by the post you put up?
After all, it was your man Bush and the GOP that launched the attack against the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan a nation they also gave lots of money too as our "ally."
The death of so many Americans, in part because of the Pakistan problem is central, not our current president.
Do you seriously believe that McCain or Palin or Romeny as president would turn around the Pakistan attitude toward the US?
