A few days ago, President Ice Cream said that al-Qaeda was ‘gone’ from Afghanistan, ergo (he did not say ‘ergo’) we had no reasons to be there, getting al-Qaeda after the terrorist attacks of 9/11 having been the original rationale for going into that godforsaken country in the first place.
Alas, just a few hours later that day, the Pentagon spokesman John ‘no imminent threat’ Kirby acknowledged that ‘al-Qaeda is a presence as well as Isis’ throughout Afghanistan.
There is quite a lot of that Yes-No, Did-Didn’t, whiplashing these days. Jen Psaki, the President’s press secretary, told us that no Americans were ‘stranded’ in Afghanistan, adding for good moralistic measure that it was ‘irresponsible’ to suggest such a thing.
Many observers close to the situation have a different assessment of what will happen; said one, ‘it is unavoidable that Americans, Green Card holders and those who worked with us will be left behind’. Hard cheese on those folks, but, as always, the Babylon Bee distributes solace, explaining that ‘Americans Trapped By Taliban With No Rescue Plan Happy To Hear They Are Not Stranded’.
Well, that’s what we used to call black humor in a satirical paper. For the people actually on the ground, there is not a lot of humor.

I call him the Fertilizer President...Everything he touches turns to sh&*

Somebody supported this stupid son of a bitch Biden.
Who still takes order from the Brown Midas
What I don’t understand is, why didn’t blow up the most valued equipment. Satchel charges, grenades, booby traps, etc.
The equipment is part of the deal.
When Biden was running for president,,in his basement,,, the photo ops that were flying around his campaign were of him eating ice cream while wearing Ray Ban aviator sunglasses.
It was a marketing gimmick, to portray an image that would emote a response which is some sort of Americana dream.
like everything else the democrats do and Biden has done, it was all an illusion to deceive.
