As an accused "American liberal" (which you use like Australia, backwards), I say GREAT! I'm all for doing what Pres Bush has not done - bringing those who led the planning for an attack on America to justice. I don't have a problem with war. I just happen to be a foreign policy conservative and thus see war as a one tool, and a tool of last resort. In this case America should request that Pakistan allow us to search their mountain country for a known fugitive that led an attack on the US homeland. If they refuse, we should bring global pressure on them - essentially boxing in every country to make a judgment on this behavior. Then a joint force should request access. Then we should invade. The question to the world is simple: do you support a country that harbors a terrorist that executed one of the most despicable acts of terrorism in modern times. My sense is that Obama could align that global coalition and win. McCain can't. But it's subjective. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:269677 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
