Obama says when he's president, he's going to go after terrorists. "It was a terrible mistake to fail to act when we had a chance to take out an al-Qaeda leadership meeting in 2005," he said, referring to reports that the US had decided not to launch a strike for fear of harming ties with Pakistan.
"If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won't act, we will," Mr Obama said. "
Remember when GW Bush felt this way? When he stood in the rubble of the twin towers and said we'd hunt down Bin Laden? How the terrorists would hear from us? How does he feel now?
"White House spokesman Tony Snow defended Pakistan's leadership, saying it was working hard to fight al-Qaeda and Taleban fighters within its borders. But US officials have publicly said recently that they believe Pakistan has let al-Qaeda and Taleban militants reorganise themselves in tribal areas bordering Afghanistan."
OK, I'll step aside so HD can repeat the base lie that Clinton refused to kill Bin Laden when he had the chance:
