  • Korb's premise is flawed because he thinks the taliban can be "routed out" of Afghanistan. That's like saying the Babtists can be routed out of Missouri. What does he propose, that we ethnically cleanse the Taliban by removal or genocide?

  • Bingo!

    I mean, how dare you? I'm shocked, positively shocked at your accusation....

    Fer us or agin' us, as they say...

  • Sorta sounds like the U.S. huh?

  • Why support Pakistan? Does Pakistan even qualify as a democratic state? It's just another 3rd world dictatorship, funnelling arms & money to the Taliban in exchange for drugs. And it has the Bomb!

  • Katrine seemed more than a little bitchy during that 'debate'

  • Pulling out troops would help pakistan cause less simpletons would be flooding it, they would just stay in there own shit hole..

  • I think if we put 1% as much money into fighting drug *demand* here at home in the U.S. as we spend fighting drug *providers* in Afghanistan AND Mexico, we could cut into the cost of fighting both problems immeasurably, at dramatically lower cost in both dollars and lives.

  • burn the poppy fields

  • She is smart he is a boob.
