Bush: "Obama would attack Pakistan, Embrace Amadinejad."

[MODU]

I don't think that President Bush is in much of a position to be predicting bad foreign policy decisions on the part of candidates for president.

He's not predicting.  He's just restating what Obama has said on the campaign trail (which goes to show that Bush is paying more attention to the race than he admits).

Just to clarify, here: Obama never said he was going to attack Pakistan. He said attack Al Qaeda compounds within Pakistan as a last resort if the Pakistani government became completely uncooperative with efforts against Al Qaeda.

He said he would cross the borders to attack al Qaeda without Pakistani approval, and that action would be considered an act of war against the country of Pakistan itself.  (If you want to get technical.)

Yes, true. But it's only a pretty unlikely hypothetical, anyway.

Very, yet he did say it, and in an election cycle (and as President), every single thing you say will be disected and spun in a million ways.

I would think you, MODU, out of all people would approve of this hypothetical.

Why?  We have no need to invade Pakistan.  What we do need though is permission to do joint strikes with the Pakistani military along the borders, and hopefully Gen. Kayani will approve of the joint strikes if/when he replaces Musharraf.

Well, maybe if it came out of Bush's mouth you would have.

hahaha . . . no, but I like how they myth stays alive.
