Top U.S. intelligence officials have repeatedly warned that Al Qaeda is operating in “safe havens” in one country in particular, a country often left out of the US foreign policy discourse: Pakistan.
Yet, the "National Security" page on McCain's website has no mention of the country.
In contrast, Sen. Obama advocated for a serious focus on Pakistan already back in the early primary days, and was criticized by the McCain campaign - among others - as a result.
Sen. McCain likes to tout his national security credentials, but it looks like he needs to stop worrying only about Iran and Iraq and get a refresher on America's national security priorities.
