Presidential hopefuls attack Obama's remarks about Pakistan

At a debate on Tuesday, Senator Barack Obama was blasted by Democratic rivals for what he said about Pakistan. Apparently Obama had made a comment saying that he would send U.S. forces into Pakistan, without the country's approval, if it were necessary to get rid of terrorism. I don't think that this was very wise of him to make a statement like this while running for president. I think that many voters will be turned away from someone that says their going to do things even if the country doesn't approve. We already had our current president do things like this and look at how much the country likes him now.

Ya, I thought it was strange when he brought that up too. But like someone pointed out in my blog about this same issue, people usually will say whatver it takes to get votes!
