Dems are spatting with each other yet again. Edwards & Obama are ready to send US troops into Pakistan. Whatever happened to their cry to bring the troops home?:

>From NBC’s Domenico Montanaro

Not to be outdone or overshadowed by Obama on foreign policy, Biden, Dodd and Richardson all said they were unimpressed by Obama’s speech today on counter terrorism.

“Look, the truth is the four major things he called for, well, hell that’s what I called for,” Biden said today on MSNBC's Hardball, echoing comments he made earlier in the day at an event promoting his book at the National Press Club.

Dodd was even more biting in a released statement, saying: "Frankly, I am not sure what Barack is calling for in his speech this morning. But it is dangerous and irresponsible to leave even the impression the United States would needlessly and publicly provoke a nuclear power.”

Richardson played up his experience, said he has already talked about refocusing on al Qaeda and the Taliban.

NOTE: Biden also said on Hardball that he likes Sens. Clinton, Dodd and Richardson, but “I don’t know Barack as well and don’t know John Edwards as well.”

"My belief is that we have a responsibility to find bin Laden and al Qaeda wherever they operate," Edwards said on camera. "I think we need to maximize pressure on Musharraf and the Pakistani government. If they can't do the job, then we have to do it."<
