How did you learn about Obama's Pakistan comments?

I am guilty of not having read Obama's exact words on his approach to Pakistan terror until today, when I found the quote in Salon.com.

"How many of you had not heard Obama's exact words before today?"

"There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again. It was a terrible mistake to fail to act when we had a chance to take out an al-Qaida leadership meeting in 2005. If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won't act, we will.

1. OT: I have to wonder why ALL of the candidates - both parties ...

... continue to insist that it was "3,000 Americans" who died on 9/11 ...
There were citizens of some 50 different countries killed that day, the outrage should not only be ours.
