first of all the man has been in office for all of 5 weeks? whatever is happening now in Pakistan was underway before he got in the White House and as a new wet behind the ears president taking over 2 wars you really don't want him making rash military decisions and pissing off the commanders and generals who are running these wars, the right would be up in arms calling him a naive pussy who is going to undo the progress already made.
and more importantly the man was explicit in debates that his plan was to step things up in Afghanistan where he believes the bigger danger exists. As for Pakistan, he told the American electorate in two debates that he would have no compunction about launching attacks on the enemy from within Pakistan's borders. McCain mocked him about that.
And what somebody else posted "The Pakistan is working with the US on this stuff, but they can't be seen as working with the US on this stuff. Get it?"
It took Bush time to become reviled - some of it earned, some not. Obama's not going to have a 4 year honeymoon.
