"Naive"


Yeah, that's right Barack, I said 'naive.'
Anyway, America's Senator Clinton took first-term Senator Barack Obama to the proverbial wood-chipper at the latest AFL-CIO debate, hosted by MSNBC anchor and big fan of this website Keith Olbermann (insert self-referential joke here) over remarks that the young, inexperienced Senator made concerning invading our ally in the war on terrorists (He's for it.), Pakistan. Here's what the first Senator of our hearts had to say:

"I don't believe people running for president should engage in hypotheticals," she said, while admitting an attack might be merited on the basis of actionable intelligence.


"I think it is a very big mistake to telegraph that, and to destabilize the Musharraf regime which is fighting for its life against the Islamist extremists who are in bed with Al-Qaeda and (the) Taliban," she said.


Senator Clinton also warned that Washington would have to be mindful to the
implications of American actions on the government of President Pervez Musharraf
especially having to keep in mind that Pakistan has nuclear weapons and these
might fall into the hands of the al Qaeda.


She indirectly told Obama "you shouldn't always say everything you think if you're running for president, because it has consequences across the world."

Now that quote was taken from the website for "The Hindu News Update Service." That's from, like, half the world away, so don't tell me the world isn't watching this election. The world wants to see to it that the U.S. elects a member of a minority to the highest office of our land. And that minority is Senator Clinton.
