"We are still learning the details of today's tragic events in Pakistan, but this is a stark reminder that America must not only stay on high alert, but remain actively engaged across the globe. Pakistan has long been a key part in the war against extremism and radical jihadists. For those who think Iraq is the sole front in the War on Terror, one must look no further than what has happened today. America must show its commitment to stand with all moderate forces across the Islamic world and together face the defining challenge of our generation – the struggle against violent, radical jihadists.
"At this difficult time, our thoughts and prayers go to the family of Benazir Bhutto, and to all the people of Pakistan who are fighting against extremist forces that would commit such heinous acts as the whole world has witnessed today."
Suddenly Campaign '08 is suffused with the seriousness it deserves as the country watches a nuclear power destabilized via terrorism. I am reminded of the hideous Des Moines Register and YouBoob debates and the silliness MSM brought to a campaign that should have always had national security at its center.~~Hugh Hewitt

How anyone thinks Huckabee -- with his Carteresque foreign policy pronouncements -- can protect our country effectively is beyond me.
OK so Mitt issued a statement, I would like to see a transcript of the video posted, particularly the part where Mitt's states we need for nations to support moderate Islamic leaders.
Mitt fans don't get your skivvies twisted that was not quote, but when he sounds like Edwards, Obama and Jimmy Carter this nation needs to take notice.
