Al Qaeda leadership in Pakistan: Hillary Clinton

LAHORE: The leadership of Al Qaeda is in Pakistan, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Thursday.

?I find it hard to believe that nobody in your government knows where they are and couldn?t get them if they really wanted to,? she added.

?Maybe that?s the case; maybe they?re not gettable. I don?t know... As far as we know, they are in Pakistan,? Clinton told senior Pakistani newspaper editors in Lahore, AFP reported. ?The percentage of taxes on GDP (in Pakistan) is among the lowest in the world... We (the United States) tax everything that moves and doesn?t move, and that?s not what we see in Pakistan,? she said.

?You do have 180 million people. Your population is projected to be about 300 million. And I don?t know what you?re going to do with that kind of challenge, unless you start planning right now,? she said.

?If we are going to have a mature partnership where we work together? then ?there are issues that not just the United States but others have with your government and with your military security establishment?.

Separately, Clinton also met army chief General Ashfaq Kayani and exchanged views on a host of security-related issues.

Funniest thing I've read all day, from Politico...

"President obama has spent more in 9 Months than Bill Clinton did in 8 Years"

Followed by

"Democrats want to reassure the voters that they aren't spending recklessly".....

Ya just can't make this shit up......

I don't consider those over the cap to be the "workers" but sure.

You ignore your own facts. Fact, SSI, by the trustees own words, will be out of money by 2039. Unless you take the best case scenario in which case it runs deficits until a significant portion of the population dies.

Can't wait until the same folks that brought us SSI are providing our heath care!

No one has suggested increasing worker taxes. Maybe LS4E, but I expect he will deny it. Taking off the cap so the rich carry an equal burden, sure. Somehow I doubt that will tax anyone to the breaking point.

So why is taxation the apparent solution to everything per Gov? The only people who have any money are the ones working and taxing them to the breaking point isnt going to jump start anything. Add to the the rules and tax code for new businesses and growth has stopped too.........Someone needed to read some writings by Thomas Jefferson before they utter the words "government should...."

So, insisting on factual discussion is refusing to deal with reality?

Enhanced Interrogation Techniques
Dick Cheney has recently threatened to not cooperate with a Justice Department probe. Since we are in a time of war and they are trying to find out information of national security, would enhanced interrogation techniques be appropriate?
