Well, his statement was no more or less substantive than any of the other blow-hards who have come out to this point.
"Iraq may be the hot war, but Pakistan is where the cold, calculating planning is going on. If al Qaeda strikes us tomorrow, the attack will be postmarked "Pakistan." And the American people, not understanding why a supposed U.S. ally refused to help and our government put up with it, will justifiably be outraged that bin Laden and his top people got away. In fact, we almost did suffer that next attack: the plot to blow up ten airliners over the Atlantic that the British government foiled in 2006 was hatched in Pakistan, as was an attack against U.S. targets in Germany that was planned to coincide with the sixth anniversary of 9/11. Rather than wait for the next strike, I prefer to cut to the chase by going after al Qaeda's safe havens in Pakistan." - Mike Huckabee
Less. Much less. It was a response that indicated that he had no idea who this lady was and so didn't want to say anything at all. Someone briefed him on the go, and told him he had to say something, so he did. His apology was assinine.
I hope the Iowans don't fall for his schtick. I am waiting for him to be gone from the scene. Romney and Rudy are RINOs. This guy is just nuts, and is easily led, and would be as dangerous as any Dem.
