We are making Afghanistan safe for "Bacha Bazi", which the Taliban opposed, instead of just leaving after the training camps were wiped out. It makes me proud to be an American. I bet it makes you proud, too. The Afghan War is the longest war in US history and it has been a total failure and the entire mess has been utterly pointless, with the lives of good American men and women sacrificed for nothing. It sickens me. It's outrageous. The Founders are spinning in their graves. Our nation, governed by imbeciles and corrupt politicians, is trillions of dollars in debt-- strangling the future prosperity of our children and grandchildren-- all to boost the stock price of corporations that supply the DOD with supplies. Russia and China are laughing at us, watching us waste all this treasure and blood, as they prepare to put us in our place.

Any of you folks still wonder why Obama and his “friend” went to Pakistan and environs? Remember, the Democrats/Progressives considered that Afghanistan was THE GOOD WAR. Barack probably still has fantasies about his “butt-boy” days.

Sadly, the United States industrial base thrives on war. We have not prospered in modern times without being at war.

Founders spinning in their graves is right... so much for avoiding foreign entanglements.
