Mit Romney accused Barack Obama of waffling by saying he would consult with the enemies of the US and Bomb our allies.
What Obama promised was to open dialogue with countries like Cuba, Iran and North Korea. He also said that if he were provided with actionable intelligence that Al-Queda were operating in Pakistan he would act to eliminate the threat.
I'm not a fan of Obama but is Romney a moron?
I mean is attacking Al-Queda in Pakistan the same as attacking Pakistan? And has ignoring Cuba actually improved anything?

Oh and I know an act of war when I see one. We certainly attacked Iraq with no Al-queda being there. I just think if its the policy to tract down Al-queda and there massing in Pakistan and the Pakistan Army can't get them "then for the safety of our people" shouldn't the republicans be for finding Al-Queda? Or was the Al-Queda thing just more B.S. You can't be for staying in Iraq to protect us from Al-Queda and not be fore attacking Al-Queda where they are training, or don't the Republican want to find Osama?

republicans/cons use that type of response when they have no defense. going after al-quaeda wherever they are, is a priority for this country. isn't that what we hear from bush?
republicans/cons always say that the dems/libs are defeatocrats, or are weak on defense. now, obama is stupid for proposing such a thing. they are whining because they didn't think of it first.
his fresh take on talks is interesting. what is the difference between his plan and the present method of sending 50 emissaries and envoys before the president gets there. now, there is a smaller government, hmmmm.
republicans/cons did the same with harry reid. they took his statement about the war being lost out of context. he actually said that the war is lost unless there is a new direction in leadership.
good question.

If you can't see that going into a sovereign nation with troops without their permission for ANY REASON is not an act of war...then it's not Romney that's the moron here.
Edit: Going into Iraq was an act of war...nobody denies that and it was very clear from the beginning. However, we were NOT going in to get Al Qaeda (weren't you paying attention then?). Even though the UN backed down on their own resolutions, the war in Iraq was a continuation of the first Gulf War agreements about what would happen if Saddam did not comply with sanctions.
There are no such precedent for going into Pakistan. If you want to use that rationale, we could also invade Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, etc.
The war on terror is NOT all about Al Qaeda...Al Qaeda is simply part of it.
