VP Sarah Palin's Position on Pakistan

What is with the VP candidates this election? First Biden admitted that he didn't like an Obama ad and now Sarah Palin says that she supports using military force against Al Queda in Pakistan, which by the way, is the opposite of what McCain wants. Instead, it is Obama's plan.

Now both VP's disagreeing publically with their Pres. pre election is stupid, but at least Biden's disagreement isn't as serious, as, say foreign policy and military action.:

Sarah Palin, quizzed at a cheesesteak place in South Philly ( I think I was at this place a couple of weekends ago. Not a cheesesteak fan so I didn't partake. My friends John and Sasha liked theirs though). Look at what she says, and now look at the BS McCain's camp put out the day after.

Here is a video of her discussing what she would do in Pakistan:


Here is an article about it if you would rather read it. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/09/28/mccain-retracts-palins-pakistan-comments/

Now, one day later, I have copied below what McCain has said about her statements:

WASHINGTON (CNN)— Sen. John McCain retracted Sarah Palin's stance on Pakistan Sunday morning, after the Alaska governor appeared to back Sen. Barack Obama's support for unilateral strikes inside Pakistan against terrorists

"She would not…she understands and has stated repeatedly that we're not going to do anything except in America's national security interest," McCain told ABC's George Stephanopoulos of Palin. "In all due respect, people going around and… sticking a microphone while conversations are being held, and then all of a sudden that's—that's a person's position… This is a free country, but I don't think most Americans think that that's a definitve policy statement made by Governor Palin."

Saturday night, while on a stop for cheesesteaks in South Philadelphia, Palin was questioned by a Temple graduate student about whether the U.S. should cross the border from Afghanistan into Pakistan.

"If that's what we have to do stop the terrorists from coming any further in, absolutely, we should," Palin said.

During Friday night's presidential debate in Mississippi, Obama took a similar stance and condemned the Bush administration for failing to act on the possibility terrorists are in Pakistan.

"Nobody talked about attacking Pakistan," Obama said after McCain accused the Illinois senator of wanting to announce an invasion. "If the United States has al Qaeda, bin Laden, top-level lieutenants in our sights, and Pakistan is unable or unwilling to act, then we should take them out."

McCain emphasized Sunday, Palin "shares" his view on the matter.

Is it not obvious by now that only do McCain and Palin not know each other, they didn't even take time to make sure they're on the same page? Palin has been criticized by liberals and conservatives alike as not being ready for the job. She is charming and has charisma for days, but does she know ANYTHING about foreign policy?
