   Bin Ladin was staying there, but he’s moved on to another motel, so there is no point in checking in.

   Wrong metaphor for Afghanistan. How about, “you can check out any time you want. But you can NEVER leave.”

   I for one, think the Bates Motel is a perfect metaphor for Afghanistan. It looks like friendly accommodations, but the proprietor is a bit suspect.

   Just don’t stay in room #1.

    Empires check in, but they don’t check out.
