Selling Malia: The Price of Presidential Popularity

She isn’t the President’s daughter, they just have the same name. She isn’t Obama’s daughter, they are just the same age. She doesn’t go to Sidwell Friends School, she sits at a little desk in a hut in Kabul. But next year, the Americans will be gone, the Taliban will be back, so she won’t go to school anymore. The mullah will come to look at her. They will give her to one of the old men with a beard, and she will go home with him, home to cook for him, home to wash his clothes and fetch his water, home to sleep in his bed, even though she is only eleven, eleven like the President’s daughter. But, she isn’t the President’s daughter, so it doesn’t matter. But it should.

It should matter that the Obama Administration started, in March, to unveil the Tale of the Magical Moderate Taliban

If Hussein is going to turn Afghanistan over to the totalitarians and their Sharia I hope he does it abruptly this year so that it will at least have a bracing effect on the 2010 elections. If he finally makes the right decision then all hail, for that, anyway. No odds are worth betting on that outcome, though.
