Pakistan criticized U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama on Friday for saying that, if elected, he might order unilateral military strikes against terrorists hiding in this Islamic country.

Top Pakistan officials said Obama's comment was irresponsible and likely made for political gain in the race for the Democratic nomination.

"It's a very irresponsible statement, that's all I can say," Pakistan's Foreign Minister Khusheed Kasuri told AP Television News. "As the election campaign in America is heating up we would not like American candidates to fight their elections and contest elections at our expense."

Let’s see.

He’s insulted Australia.

He’s insulted families of military personnel.

Now he insults Pakistan.

Is there anything else that I’ve missed?

Maybe not entirely worthless. It’s good to have these idiots open their mouths and let the excrement roll out sometimes. Gives people who are ‘on the fence’ something to consider at election time.

Obama is about as useless as t*ts on a boar hog, and about as dumb. This guy has zero credibilty for the job he now holds, let alone President.

His no-nuke statement was about as assinine as they come.

I’m no Obama fan by any means but you can’t blame him because the entire population of pakistan has diminished capacity.

It will be interesting to see if Barack puts on his “sorry face” and comes begging for forgiveness. He seems to have very thin skin and always tries to immediately compensate for his latest flub. I bet he tries to “open dialogue” with the Pakistanis, or some other such nonsense.

He should be smart enough to know that. He has needlessly inflamed a delicate situation. He's running for president in wartime, and is supposed to be aware of how his comments will be perceived by our allies and enemies.

Obama’s an idiot, but he shouldn’t be blamed for the misbehavior of some Islamofascists.

****ing moron.

I want to see the same abuse directed against Obama that was directed against Tom Tancredo for his stupid nuke-Mecca statement last year.

This is a major, MAJOR story that the MSM is covering up.
