So, your definition of victory is the WW2 kind, total. “

Again, my definition of victory is the sanme definition that is in the dictionary.
Again, victory doesn't gtet a s=a different definition because we are in Afghanistan.

That is not Obama’s definition of victory and that is not why we are sending more troops in.”

0bama doesn't believe in ANY kind of victory for America. Period!
He'd probably have bowed to the Japanese emperor and kissed Hitler's butt in WW II as well.
The guy has been an America-hating POS all his life. 0bama is being dragged kicking and screaming to actually fight the Al Quaeda vermin who he in reality has plenty of sympathies for.

Now is the time for Palin to criticize the plan, not wait for it to fail and more troops to die in a needless war that will accomplish nothing”

The general in charge of Afghanistan, McCrystal demanded those extra troops so he can finish the job. After months of waffling 0bama is finally agreeing with the general and agreeing to send the troops, like the generals on the ground demanded.
What is retarded is to go about putting time tables on when the troops will leave. That is in effect telling the Taliban to hang around till the US soldiers leave, then take over.
Both McCain(n that meeting with 0bama yesterday) and Sarah Palin strongly brought it home to 0bama that this part of the plan is not acceptable.

Well what would constitute victory in your opinion?

“That is not Obama’s definition of victory and that is not why we are sending more troops in.”

0bama doesn't believe in ANY kind of victory for America. Period!

So why does Palin support him sending more troops in when she should know he doesn't want victory?

He'd probably have bowed to the Japanese emperor and kissed Hitler's butt in WW II as well. The guy has been an America-hating POS all his life. 0bama is being dragged kicking and screaming to actually fight the Al Quaeda vermin who he in reality has plenty of sympathies for.

So, Obama isn't going for 'victory' why did Palin issue a statement supporting his sending more troops in?

“Now is the time for Palin to criticize the plan, not wait for it to fail and more troops to die in a needless war that will accomplish nothing”

The general in charge of Afghanistan, McCrystal demanded those extra troops so he can finish the job. After months of waffling 0bama is finally agreeing with the general and agreeing to send the troops, like the generals on the ground demanded.

And what would constitute 'finishing the job'?

He also gave a much higher number of troops if a sure victory (destruction of the Taliban) was the goal.

Obama is giving him half of what he requested.

What is retarded is to go about putting time tables on when the troops will leave. That is in effect telling the Taliban to hang around till the US soldiers leave, then take over.

Yes, and Palin supported Obama sending in more troops, even though they aren't being sent in to defeat the enemy, only to buy time for the U.S. to leave.

Both McCain(n that meeting with 0bama yesterday) and Sarah Palin strongly brought it home to 0bama that this part of the plan is not acceptable.

So, are the now criticizing the plan or are they still supporting Obama in sending the troops?

Will they take a stance and reject sending any troops unless it is to win or take the middle ground, like Obama and say that 30,000 is better then nothing?

Below is a definition of victory from the dictionary.

Now, what would constitute victory in Afgan.?

1. a success or triumph over an enemy in battle or war. 2. an engagement ending in such triumph: American victories in the Pacific were won at great cost. 3. the ultimate and decisive superiority in any battle or contest: The new vaccine effected a victory over poliomyelitis. 4. a success or superior position achieved against any opponent, opposition, difficulty, etc.: a moral victory.
