Shock: Tough-Guy Obama, Who Will Dare to Go Into Pakistan to Get bin Ladin Unlike That Wussy John McCain, Considers Halting Predator Strikes in That Country

Admittedly, I understand this.

On the other hand, I also understood Bush's and McCain's reluctance to beat up on the weak but crucial Musharraf, and I also understood both men's reluctance to openly discuss violating Pakistan's sovereignty. Bush did in fact violate Pakistan's sovereignty, and McCain would have continued doing so; they were just diplomatic enough to realize it wasn't a good thing to say out loud.

But Obama -- Mr. Diplomat, and Mr. Tough-Ass, too -- knew better, and began openly bragging how he'd conduct the Great Overmountain Invasion of Pakistan, qualms about sovereignty and destabilizing the already fragile state of Pakistan be damned.

To win a cheap and stupid political point, Obama threatend Pakistan and made its leadership look weak.

And now, partly because of his insane agitation against Musharraf, Pakistan's truly on the brink (what McCain and Bush hoped to avoid), and Obama decides, "Hey, maybe I should lay off the provocations, huh?"

Yeah, the rest of us knew that five years ago. You imbecile.

So how do I address Obama's sudden realization that "bein' president is complicated n' stuff"?

Stupid, lying creepy-crawlie bastard.

Thanks to AHFF Geoff again.
