ClancyJ, I agree with you in principle. However, we have to deal with things as they are and not as they should be. One of the major problems the American people have with this war on terror is that we have baked into our cultural DNA a four year threshold for war. As a collective people we seem to be willing to give an Admimistration four years to get the job done and that’s it. Once the war/conflict approaches the four year mark, Americans start to get restless - their thought process (DNA kicking in)being “hey, we won WWII in less than four years, so why is this endeavor taking so long?” Has happened every time (including Vietnam)....
