Obama vows to attack Pakistan if unable to act against militants
(NSI News Source Info) September 28, 2008: Republican John McCain and Democrat Barack Obama focused on the economy in the shadow of the US financial crisis in a first presidential debate that also crackled with sharp disputes over Iraq and terrorism.Obama reiterated his vow to launch military attacks on extremists in Pakistan if Islamabad was unwilling or unable to act, prompting a rebuke from McCain: "You don't say that out loud."While snap opinion polls made Obama an easy winner after their clash late Friday, daily newspapers were more cautious.Obama, 47, vying to make history as America's first black president, branded McCain as an inheritor of President George W. Bush's unpopular legacy of "failed" economic and foreign policies.McCain, 72, presented himself as a reformer and posed as a superior potential commander-in-chief, repeatedly saying Obama did not "understand" foreign policy threats or was "naive" in his outlook on the world."I don't think I need any on-the-job training. I'm ready to go at it right now," McCain said.
