Reply #17: could this be the first time Obama has talked about drones? [View All]

I could be completely wrong about this, but I remember a Rachel Maddow report on the fighting in Pakistan, she showed a clip of Hillary Clinton denying to comment on the drone attacks, saying "we don't talk about that". Because the war in Pakistan is officially secret, even though everyone knows about it, especially in Pakistan.

I never really understood that. What would change if Hillary had commented on the attacks? It probably has to do with some complex legal matters with international law or something.

But anyway, it's possible that for the same reason, Obama has never mentioned the drone attacks either.

Wouldn't that be weird, if this joke was the only thing Obama says during his presidency about this type of attack?
