Afghanistan will be President Obama's Vietnam.
I heard yesterday that Russia has offered us help in Afghanistan.
Amazing the difference a few years makes.
Yeah that's the ticket. The Soviets did such a good job last time.
That's all we need, to be compared to the Soviet occupation ... more
than we are now.
Unfortunately, there is no evidence the governments of Afghanistan or
Pakistan are even interested in ridding their countries of right-wing
extremist terrorists. After all our years in Iraq, we haven't done the
job there, either. We're not going to be able to remake the Islamic
world in our image.

You need to come out from under your desk, they just had a violence
free national election in Iraq... You mean the Huffington Hoax didn't
report it to you?

Iraq had violence free elections before we got there .
