what a great time for President Obama to reassess his afghanistan policy

[spanone]

and bring the troops home.

i don't think he can believe one word mcchrystal has said to him regarding the war effort.

end it now mr President.

:patriot:

1. From your keyboard to god's inbox

Priority urgent!

9. Amen. n/t

[Bluebear]

2. That could happen.

:rofl:

But it's a great thought.

[spanone]

6. he could tell the american people he has been duped...his policy was based on lies

from the military...

[Bluebear]

7. Nothing would please me more. I don't think he has it in him though.

Everything has to be pragmatic and bipartisan.

4. Start with a 6 month moratorium on the war.

5. But then he'll see that it's totally gone to shit

which is where it started. He's not scheduled to make that assessment until June of next year at the soonest.
It's our duty now to just look away and to quietly chant our litany:

It's hard work.
Some mistakes were made.
It's admittedly not perfect.
But we are where we are,
Fighting them there, where we are
So we don't have to fight them here
Where we are.
What? Do you want Al Qaida to win?
Now let us not change horses in midstream.

8. I'm all for that.

Every day this stupid war drags on is like a nail sticking in my skin. Obama should have drawn that one down right after becoming president. That is my biggest beef with his policies, to date.

10. It is time to can the right wing, warmongering McCrystal and find a true progressive patriot

McCrystal need to be gone today, if not sooner. President Obama should replace the right winger with a progressive patriot that will end the war. It is long past time to stop the hemorrhaging of our health, our wealth, and stop killing innocent people half way around the world.
