I just heard about this on Fox. Kyl was asked what he thought. He said he did not know what levin said, but the o is (supposedly) for the war in Afghanistan, so he thought levin should listen to the prez.

I now believe it may be better for us to bug out of Afghania, let the chips fall where they may, let the Afghanis, Pakistanis, Indians, Iranians, Russians, Uxbakes and Tajiks have a freeforall.

They are trending towards an early pullout, pols statements seem to reflect that along with McChrystal’s admission of no AQ in Afghania, and there’s no way it seems that the Obamawallahs will give the Army enough time to turn the situation around.

Maybe we go back when Petraeus becomes President.

And the drumbeat starts on 9-11...
If America ever got it, it was long gone by the election of 2008.

If the country had a Commander in Chief that knew what he was doing, it couldn’t have happened. Fire bomb the country and get out.

Levin, D-Mich., urged the Obama administration to expand Afghan forces to 240,000 troops and Afghan police to 160,000 officers by 2013.

Levin "manning up" since a rat is an office. He would not talk like this if a Republican was President.
