Just announced by Jennifer Griffith in a live interview, WH has asked Pentagon for a formal assessment of a withdrawal from Afghanistan, that the Afghan War is no longer in our nations interest, blamed the Afghan elections.

no. But they are that deliberately seditious.

bring ‘em home...Obama doesn’t know how to fight a war..those boys ..well men..are getting killed because of his dumb ass rules of engagement.

Strange eh? Dubyah pulled off good elections in Iraq, but community organizing Obathing could not. Obathing thinks that democracy should not be "imposed."

Well looks like we are leaving Afghanistan. If so, the Taliban will now be Russia's problem......unless they attack us here at home.

I look forward to our soldiers coming home. They are needed to get rid of the Obama Junta at the polls.

For years, Democrats have been saying that Iraq was the wrong war, and Afghanistan was the right war. They said that we should have focused on Bin Laden and Al Qaeda. They said Bush took his eye off the ball by going into Iraq. They said Afghanistan is a war worth fighting because Al Qaeda attacked us on Sept. 11th, whereas Iraq didn’t attack us.

Can you imagine if after Pearl Harbor, if we decided to pull up short of victory against Japan??????? Sept. 11th was this generation’s Pearl Harbor. Now recently we’ve been hearing Vietnam analogies with Afghanistan, which perhaps is leading us to give up there. We’ll see.

There can be no doubt that baby boy obozo is unstable and bent on every means of destruction of America he can find.

There will be no congress when he gets through.

Where is the story at the link?

No matter how you feel about the war, few are going to sit still for settling for an L to a country that doesn’t possess an air force or a tank.

As someone up thread stated this is political suicide.

[cranked]

And Barry will be in office long enough to witness and cherish such. I am sure it will be a proud moment that he will utilize in the upcoming 2012 elections to his favor. /s

Leave the "real" war on terrorism that the leftists moonbats claimed was a necessary war while the tyrant Saddam Hussein was being toppled?

Gosh, I'm really getting to think that the village idiot in the white house is playing politics at the cost of American lives.

[Williams]

Don’t see such a report at the link.

[April Lexington]

Heck... this week alone, he's sold Poland, Check, Israel and Honduras down the toilet. Why not Afghanistan?

I'm sure glad I don't live in one of them high rise New York liberal filled apartment buildings! Things could get hot, hot, hot after AQ gets its puppet state back!

[lmr]

No way. I don’t believe it. This would be political suicide. Don't worry, they will find a white guy to take the fall for this. Pay attention to McCrystal or Gates, also Petraeus.

I happen to think this recent arrest of this Afghani National with 'ties to Al-Qaeda' may be a bit trumped up and even Kabuki theater.

Obama's administration will use this case to say that Afghanistan is a 'Law Enforcement problem' and that we've been doing it wrong by taking the fight to them.

This will only speedup the next 911 and guarantee many, many more. Hope and change will get us all killed. Real nice move, Zippy.

Obama should either have the courage to fight the war over there or ... well, he obviously does not have that courage, so I’m inclined to agree that it is futile to sacrifice our troops if they’re going to be sitting ducks, hampered by restrictions and lack of resources.

[HiTech RedNeck]

the Afghan “Wart”???

Bummer has gone to so much trouble to look Bushy on the wars, except for some cosmetic details. This makes no sense at all.

Thanks, fanfan.
