"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05

Obama says he might send troops to Pakistan


Let's get this straight and clear:

"WASHINGTON - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said Wednesday that he would possibly send troops into Pakistan to hunt down terrorists, an attempt to show strength when his chief rival has described his foreign policy skills as naive."
Aimed at the president but more appropriately directed at the candidate himself:

“He confuses our mission.”

This only bolsters "his chief rivals" description of "his foreign policy skills as naive."

Personally this just flummoxes me, so I must hand it over to Michelle Malkin's "Macho Man."

Stole this idea from Thinkin'bout Stuff:
