From the LIBERAL Brookings institute...

Seems to me, Team Bush had two choices: 1) What they are doing now--softening up the Taliban until they are as assured as can be that ground forces can be effective; or 2) Use tactical nukes. I would have preferred the nukes, but it's not difficult to understand why they haven't been used.

The claim here that the military effort has been calibrated to meet political objectives is total BS. It's a notion that has gained widespread acceptance by the liberal media, but without a shred of evidence.

Another couple of armchair warriors heard from. Second guessing our military operations and our commanders has become a national pasttime.

They should all just "stand watch listen" and SHUT UP!

I'm getting sick and tired of hearing pundits, armchair generals, and, most of all, so-called "experts" tell the guys in charge what they "need" to do, what they "ought" to do, what they "must" do, what they "should" do. Most of these people have agendas of their own. PUT A SOCK IN IT FOR ONCE IN YOUR LIVES!!!!

(sorry, I'm moody today!)

Don't expect Colon Bowell to learn anything. He hasn't had a new idea in ten years. His new idea part of the brain is hopelessly atrophied.
