To my recollection, js mcsame said one thing that wasn't either a lie or a distortion.

[leftofthedial]

he said it was a mistake to abandon Afghanistan after we funded the mujahadeen's defeat of the Soviet Union.

Otherwise, it was all distortion and an alarming number of outright lies.

2. But he neglected to mention..

that we put the Taliban in power.

3. and given the distastrous involvement of repukes around the world,

things might have become MUCH worse had the likes of 100-year John stayed engaged.

4. He also forgot to mention that he was one of the Senators who

abandoned them.

Charlie Wilson: "We won the war, but lost the peace," when talking about the Russian defeat in Afghanistan.

saying it was one of his biggest mistakes and biggest regrets and a mistake that can't be repeated.
