source: What he actually said
"There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again. It was a terrible mistake to fail to act when we had a chance to take out an al Qaeda leadership meeting in 2005. If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won't act, we will."

Well here are other opinions of what he said & was thinking:

Obama terror vow angers Pakistan

AND

 Obama, Clinton clash on nuclear arms

Cracked Hussein Obama is NOT someone I want as Commander-in-Chief!  He apparently doesn't understand that Pakistan is cooperating as best as an Islamic country with nuclear weapons will cooperate. He lacks fundamental diplomatic skills.  There for a while I thought he was likely to become a VP, but I think his naivete jumped that idea into the crapper!

I'm sure that Obama is well aware of the sensitive nature of our relationship with Musharrif.  His words echo many analysts who tells us that the mountanious areas of Pakistan are the primary breeding ground for terrorists who are plotting against our homeland.  It is not Iran where the current administration's focus seems to be.  Such a warning comming from a president of the US issued to Pakistan would be quite in order and might actually move us twards a more effective initiative preventative against a homeland attack.  His words now fortell an end to the "talking out of both sides of our mouth" to Pakistan that has charactized our relations with that country. Personally i welcome them.  Now it seems that Obama is a man who focuses on the real threat and works to nutralize it. 

Kudos, Obama.

What Cracked Obama will actually achieve is the pissing off Pakistan to the point that we can no longer fly our planes across their airspace into Afghanistan.  Furthermore, If he actually carries out his threat, he will get Musharraf overthrown by Islamists.  If he were to get into office he wouldn't do it anyway - reality sets in when you actually have responsibility for the consequences of your words & deeds.  He's just trying to shore up some homeland security creds after all his anti-war stands as far as the eye can see (only 2 years).
Obama
La Bamba Obama

anti-war, eh?
In this video Obama explains in detail the difference between what he did say and the misrepresentations of that by his oponents.  Why not deal with the real issue ... it is quite thorny enough?  Ask yourself, if you were president, would you take action against terrorist in Pakistan if you had actionable intelligence about a plot to  attack this country and Pakistan did not act to foil it?  If you say no, they you are paving the way for a terrorist refuge in the Northwestern territories ... and you would make an irresponsible commander and chief.  Those of you who have misrepresented Obama on this issure should be ashamed of yourself.
