Thread: McCain retracts Palin's Pakistan comments

Poor Grandpa John. Instead of campaigning he's got to clean up after Palin makes another fool of herself.

WASHINGTON (CNN)— Sen. John McCain retracted Sarah Palin's stance on Pakistan Sunday morning, after the Alaska governor appeared to back Sen. Barack Obama's support for unilateral strikes inside Pakistan against terrorists
"She would not…she understands and has stated repeatedly that we're not going to do anything except in America's national security interest," McCain told ABC's George Stephanopoulos of Palin. "In all due respect, people going around and… sticking a microphone while conversations are being held, and then all of a sudden that's—that's a person's position… This is a free country, but I don't think most Americans think that that's a definitve policy statement made by Governor Palin."

So when is Obie going to retract Biden's "FDR went on TV" comments?

So whatcha trying to say, Bourne, that it's okay for Obie to promise to unilaterally invade a sovereign state if it can get him elected, but it's not okay for his opponent's sidekick to say the same thing?

What would YOU be saying if Palin had made that retarded "FDR on TV" remark?

So why have you said nothing about Biden's complete unsuitability to be VP, or even janitor?

Here is a classic example of the right hand not communicating with the left hand. Man they look like the Keystone Cops.

Roosevelt on TV, huh, I thought they weren't invented then. Actually they were but hams were doing it.

Isn't it strange that the media glosses over the fact that the supposed "anti-war" candidate Obama actually supports a major act of aggression that even the insane warmonger McCain won't endorse?

No, he's saying it reveals the McCain-Palin ticket doesn't have its shit together and you know it.

Well I will not believe that McCain does not agree with this, in his lame statement he said "you do not tell your enemy that your about to attack them", I hope the folks in Pakistan heard that.

Obama said he would advocate taking out a terrorist operative in Pakistan even if the Pakistani government didn't cooperate.

Well of course its all about strategy. Do you go for Iran first or do you go for the Pakis first? That is the choice people make when they choose McCain or Obama.
