In Saturday's "faith forum" McCain reiterated his fist-pounding declaration that he will "follow Osama bin Laden to the GATES OF HELL!!"... even though we also know he's said he wouldn't necessarily go after him if he was known to be in Pakistan. (Now, I know there are nuances about "sovereign nations", etc., though that didn't seem to stop us from going into Iraq, but I think we've learned over the last few election cycles that the American people don't really do nuance).
Someone said something in the comments of a diary here that struck me and I can't find it now so if someone else can please let me know so I can cite it... but it was said that Obama's response should be something like "You've also said you wouldn't go after bin Laden if he was known to be in Pakistan. Just which side of the Gates of Hell is Pakistan on?"
