Pashto, Urdu
by jvanke

Pashto vs Pashtun. Have we ever before had a president where we could quibble about such a distinction?

On Urdu. Obama referred to "those areas." No doubt he knows Al Qaeda is hanging out in Pakistan (though perhaps not in Urdu-speaking areas). And he probably also knows that our special ops there are, uh, special, also as in sometimes secret.

Quick, before McCain learns up on it, go ask him what they speak in Pakistan.
