Liberals can’t seem to make up their minds about Afghanistan.
When we first went in in 2001, it was a bad war. Baaaad! Baa! Baa! We were told how the Taliban were invincible, how it was hopeless, how the U.S. military was doomed. Then we crushed the Taliban in weeks. Liberal EPIC FAIL.
Then, when the Iraq war started, Afghanistan became the good war. Iraq’s a quagmire! Why aren’t we focusing on Afghanistan? Where’s bin Laden? Us liberal armchair generals could do things so much better!
Then, after the surge in Iraq squashed the insurgency, Afghanistan became the bad war again. Baaad! Baa! Baa! The Resurgent Taliban (TM) with their Mighty Mega Super Powers (TM) will crush us all! Baa!
Then, when Obama became president, Afghanistan became the good war again. It’s not a quagmire anymore! Obama, the All-Knowing, will lead us to glory and victory!
Until, of course, Obama decides to pull out before the job is done, instantly making Afghanistan the bad war again. Baaad! Ba-
You get the idea.
Oh yeah. big time.
