The only one running that would take the fight to the enemy and then get the hell out of the Middle Eastern hell-hole is Donald Trump. The rest would have us in Afganistan till hell freezes over, especially neocon Rubio.

It is all about him.
He has no concept of American loyalty or citizenship.

Since he has demonstrated time-and-again that he has absolutely no idea what he is doing, he would delegate all such decisions to the military itself, if he had any love for this country ....

OK. Well then, that answers that.

Why do I think that the only reason Obama will stay in Afghanistan is to avoid taking blame for what will happen if he orders the US out, or that he has his hand in the Opium trade and still needs a bigger cut?

I guess I shouldn’t speculate like that.

Was listening to Mr. Obama’s nose grow a bit longer while trying to reboot the computer. Maybe that computer was trying to tell me something. :)

Traitorous POS won’t give them what they need to win in the “Graveyard of Empires”.

Putin wants the United States to go broke in that hellhole? Just like the Russians did...

I’m sickened we’re going to be throwing US lives and treasure down that rathole. Nothing there for us. Absolutely nothing.

>>the only reason Obama will stay in Afghanistan

Maybe Comrade Chairman Flex-O-Bumble is providing his homosexual appointees with a forum in which they can do the most damage to what’s left of American moral character?

And Comrade Chairman Flex-O-Bumble is a strategic ASSet, after all.

Bad optics with Pooty kicking Islamic butt in Syria. Anyone who thinks 0bama is doing it for anyone other than himself hasn't been paying attention the last seven years. I did notice one interesting item: read the entire article and it didn't blame Bush once. The Times is losing it.

He’s either deliberately confused or a total klutz.
