1. Biden would go into Pakistan to kill terrorists, he just wouldn't
announce it to the world first.

Biden elaborated, saying "I've been proposing we pursue al Qaeda in Pakistan for five years." Biden went on to say that the "last thing you want to do" is announce to the people of Pakistan that you're going to violate their sovereignty. He said such action would force Pakistani Pres. Pervez Musharraf to make deals with various factions. Biden noted as POTUS you simply take action.

Please change your OP, and I don't have a link, but I believe that is what Dodd said as well.

7. But isn't he announcing it now with that response?
He's saying: I agree with him, but I just wouldn't have said it publicly.
But by saying he agrees with him, he's announcing it publicly that he would do the same thing. So it's just a ridiculous and hypocritical criticism.

2. Edwards didn't say that--neither did Biden or Dodd

This isn't a clear-cut issue as Team Obama is making it out to be. They all would fight terror. Some would just be smarter and reasonable about it.

4. Wrong, Biden would also go in
He's just not going to say so until we have to go in.

6. He also said Obama made a mistake by announcing it to the world in advance
Biden understands diplomacy and foreign affairs; apparently Obama does not.

9. You are laughable - You can not vote for Edwards because he
is stating the same thing.
