remember how Obama wasn't supposed to mention Pakistan? Biden wasn't supposed to
mention Obama might be tested? Interesting how those and other supposed "gaffes" or "inept" statements turned out to be precisely what needed to be said.

Obama was saying he would head over the border into Pakistan to deal with Taliban and Al Queda if Pakistani government was unwilling or unable to do anything about it themselves. Then it came out Bush was doing unmanned aerial drone bombings prior and possibly troops had crossed. So Obama was only stating the obvious. And it turned out he kept his promise.

Same with Biden on Obama would be tested. What do you think the N. Korean missile festival is? It is testing Obama and his will to negotiate on his terms with the crazy short little dictator. But somehow it is wrong to state the obvious in Washington.

Like....we have all we need to get a solid health care reform bill through. So let's stop jacking around about getting GOP support and just do what the American people want us to do. After all, there is supposedly a reason the Dems are in the distinct majority??? Because GOP sucks? And most of America finally figured it out?

3. thanks. but people like you keep posting to it dragging it from "the beyond"
so I decided to briefly thank a couple of people and move on. I really wonder how you define your role in here at DU, masuki.

What are you trying to accomplish?
