Isn't Obama supposed to be anti-war, or is he only anti-war when its covenient for his political career?

There's a difference between being generically anti-war and being against the Iraq war. Of course this difference is too subtle for Republicans to understand. Turn off the freaking propaganda and learn to think for yourself.

So he wants to go to war with a country that's a lot stronger than Iraq and is somewhat helping us? Wow....

Pakistan isn't really helping us.

At least they're doing something, which is much more than most of the Middle Eastern countries.

It is interesting to see people who hate the Iraq war are trying to condone this somehow.

You seem to be missing two key points

1. Pakistan, unlike Iraq, actually has a lot of Al Qaeda in it, and the government isn't cooperating
2. Obama is just leaving it as an option

The article is from Nedra Pickler, so must be taken with a dump truck load of salt. She repeatedly screws up articles, and should be fired. I believe what Obama actually said was he would support air strikes on specific targets in Pakistan if the situation arose. Nothing that exciting.

People need to read Obama's actual speech, and opposed to reading the latest right-wing propaganda from Nedra Pickler. There are plenty of sh**tty "journalists" out there, but she is still one of the worst.
