I love this quote...
Quote: "McKiernan requested the additional 20,000 troops be sent to fight the increasing violence by the resurgent Taliban forces in the southern and eastern parts of the country."

And we're fighting the Taliban why? Are they a threat to our national security?

Couple this with Obama's promise to redeploy troops from Iraq to Afghanistan and it's a done deal. But I'm sure this is a "just" war now that Obama is taking the reins, right?

He's going to perpetuate the Bush Doctrine. Told ya so...

Are you really that stupid, ignorant, or just trolling?

Just wondering...?

Please explain how this is NOT a continuation of the Bush Doctrine Einstein.

On second thought, you'd better not. You might hurt yourself.

If they are putting the plans for this in motion now, while Bush is still in charge, how can this be Obama's fault? You are aware he isn't actually in charge of the country yet? Bush still has a few more weeks of shafting the people time.

Obama has already gone on record with the intent of redeploying troops to Afghanistan. Think he'll put an end to it, or will he continue with his plans?

Have you seen the list of mid-night politics that bush has in store for the next month?

Max420, what threat did Saddam present to the U.S.? When there was a Saddam there was no Al Quaeda in Iraq. Now..? Whoops! How about Afghanistan, how many of the attackers, even back in the 90s, were of Afghani origin? Whoops again!

If you're so gung ho that we go after the countries who make terrorists that attack us, then why are we not at war with Saudi Arabia? You realize, don't you, that if we went to war with Pakistan that we'd end up in a nuclear war, yes? I assume that you know which countries have nukes and which don't, and that would likely also include Iran.
Every president does this. Do you think that Obama will start his Change program by rescinding all the nifty executive powers enacted during Bush & Co.'s tenure? That would be one hell of a start. Pushing to get rid of PATRIOT in its entirety would be fantastic. Except that he voted for it.

Then there's the idea that he's going to even decriminalize mj, even when he's continued to state that he is not in favor.



Cognitive dissonance, anyone?
