Good. Let’s take out as many terrorists while we can.

*** lawmakers on Capitol Hill were briefed on the new plan shortly before The New York Times broke the story this week about the Special Operations raid from Afghanistan into Pakistan. ***

Is this TREASON or what!

At the end of the article the author questions why this is occurring now as opposed to one year ago. I'd say from references in the article to Pakistani resistance to U.S. lead attacks on their sovereign territory that was pretty obvious. This is attack by executive order, notice the congress wasn't even informed until the attacks took place; Likely without any knowledge or acceptance of the Pakistani authority. Open and closed case of years of diplomatic attempts to get the Pakistani gov. on board finally drawing to a close on the conclusion that they didn't ever really want the terrorists gone in the first place.

It is about time. This should have happened in 2001.

Ooooh... they flew an AC-130 Spectre into that rathole! YES!

That left a mark for sure!

Should have been doing this since 2002, rather than trying to play footsie with Musharraf and the Pakistanis.

OK, I know I’m going to catch hell for this. Obama is clearly not ready to be president, but I will never trust McCain to do any of the things he is promising today, although I will probably end up voting for him. Anyways, to get back to my original point - can someone please point out how this is any different from what Obama said he was going to do? I seem to remember McCain and Clinton jumping on his back about striking into Pakistani territory. Thanks
