Obama is dripping his inexperience all over this week. First, he said he would sit down and talk with dictators and supporters of terrorism, and was roundly chastised by all the internet left.
Then, after saying he'll talk to our enemies, he's saying he will bomb one of our few Islamic allies, Pakistan. Regardless of the policital upheaval such an act would create, he says he will commit an act of war against a nuclear power. That's simply shocking. While Bush and both Clintons have said they wouldn't rule it out, it's vastly different to say that it would be official US policy under a Obama presidency.
Then, he unilaterally takes the nuclear option off the table, regardless of the situation. No president since 1945 has used nuclear weapons, and part of the reason is that they had that big stick behind them. It prevented war many times with the Soviet Union, and is a strong deterrent against any attack on the US. Saying he would not use nukes, no matter what, is foolish.

good points. people who cant speak without putting their foot in their own mouth have no business in poitics... regardless of political party, beliefs, race, ethnicity, etc.
i can tell we got some obama fans in the room... you should do your homework before trashing on bush and making statements like "not allot of jobs"... unemployment is damn near an all time low. im not a huge bush fan... and my rule applies to him too. he is terrible in front of a camera.
and LEO... just about all politicians get in by saying stuff they never intend on doing. its all one big sales pitch. they might as well all sell used cars
how do you know if a politician is lying? - their mouth is open

Barack's inexperience- is "showing". It's why he's having trouble overcoming Clinton's lead in the Polls. I think we need a "change" of policy in this Country- too. But after 7 years of living under a President who ALSO was very inexperienced in foreign affairs, -I'm not sure we want to take the SAME chance- with the Democratic Party this time. It looks like this may be Hillary's Election to lose...

If you want to crucify him becase he said this and that,and he is not that experienced fine. The worst is voting for someone that has the qualifications and when he gets in there he plays the SIDE AND AGENDA GAME. if he doesnt do what he says he will do than talk bad about. What we can say about 8 years of bush, higher gas, not allot of jobs, inflation, a big credit card bill whic will later increase taxes, nothing. Do what I say but dont do what I do, bushs motto.

Obama is only one letter away from that man hiding out in Afghanistan and has been known to have attended the same types of schools and get the same training and they say destruction will come from within and We Americans should remember to be careful what we wish for. Because of this I cannot vote for him anyway.

Check out Ron Paul, a staunch constitutionalist. His position on foreign affairs is that we should stay out of foreigner's affairs when it has nothing to do with us.
