Benazir Bhutto and American politicians

By VictorM:

The assassination of Benazir Bhutto of Pakistan has brought out some shameful statements from several presidential candidates from both parties. Please people, get real! You're sinking way lower than you need to.

Paul Krugman summarizes my thoughts on this very succinctly:

To all the presidential campaigns trying to claim that the atrocity in Pakistan somehow proves that they have the right candidate — please stop.

This isn’t about you; in fact, as far as I can tell, it isn’t about America. It’s about the fact that Pakistan is a very messed-up place. This has very bad consequences for us, but it’s hard to see what, if anything, it says about US policy.
