What I read from our Marine Generals here in San Diego
this in winnable.

The Paulites on FR have joy in posting liberal sources to take down the will of the people. The same sh** the media
did during Vietnam.

The only way we lose is being sucked into the liberal and fringe propaganda

Ron Paul’s foreign policy has always been heavily influenced by the Monroe Doctrine. I’m not saying its right, but the man believes we have no business nation building in Iraq and Afghanistan. If you look at the cost in money and american blood, sometimes I wonder if he’s not all that crazy.

Sure it is winnable! Viet nam was easily winnable too. We kicked Charlies butt nine ways to Sunday in the Thet Offensive and they were about to quit. That was straight from the journal of the top RVN General who got his ass handed to him. But! General Cronkite’s analysis was that we lost and that started the whole cascading folly and gave the RVN new life and eventually the war.

As a veteran of the region before the blowup, I can say from my experience this thing in Afghanistan is very winnable on the same level as was Viet Nam, but it is also very losable in the same respect.
