Why are we wasting our time, money and better yet, our troops on a hell hole like Afghanistan? Get us the hell out of there and let these animals enjoy their caves and otherwise worthless country. There is nothing we can do to change anything there except agent orange their poppy crops.

What better way for Obama to decimate our military then send them to die for no possible legitimate (strategic) reason.

That is absolutely what we need to do.

Why Liberals Kill

http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2009-10-17/why-liberals-kill/full/

The left may be pressuring President Obama to exit Afghanistan. But their heroes—from FDR to JFK—promoted U.S. involvement in more wars than all modern GOP presidents combined. Should President Barack Obama continue his escalation of the wars in Afghanistan and Pakistan, it will be the liberal thing to do.

We waste time because Obama and many other D.C. politicians are interested in proving that the United States is better than the Soviets were in the fight to control Afghanistan, and the Middle East, in fact, the reality is that the big major players for diplomatic control of the Middle East are Russia, China, U.S.A., and a little more besides. The “Cold War” isn’t truly over, and the U.S. is still trying to prove itself superior to the other rival nations. Never mind that the Middle East has cost us more oil in fighting machines over there than we could hope to actually get out of it.
