There are a lot of neo-cons who signed that letter but I don’t consider her to be a neo-con but rather a more traditional conservative. I believe she signed the letter because she has a son in Iraq and knows how dangerous and foolish it is if we don’t adequately fund the war effort. She’s basically calling on Obama to dispense with the half measures and fight this to win.
Why is she the only Republican with the stones to confront Obama?
Half measures? He is more pro-war than Bush. If you think we can win there, you might want to read some Afghan history. In more than 2000 years, nobody has conquered that country, nobody. The Russians went all out and even they failed. Besides we are bankrupt. Where do you intend to get the money to pay for all this? Also, what precisely are we fighting for now? Karzai his corrupt and his government is wiling to impose the death penalty on Christian converts.
