   Just a quiet reminder that it was Bush/Cheney or should I say CHENEY/bush that put him in charge.

   Afgahanistan is certainly not a democracy, or a nation, it is barely a country, it is really a collection of war-lords, let’s get out now, there is no need for our troops to die there.

   Saudi Arabia, and the oil nations, the ones getting rich from our oil use, are the real threat – they support and finance the terroris, let’s go there, or at least call them on it.

   I despise true idealogues. Oh, and traitors. Because there’s no other word to describe these lunatic leftists who spit on the graves of 3000 dead Americans and blame George Bush for us being in Afghanistan.

   Hell, even the late-night comedians have more brains than you. Wasn.t it Jay Leno who quipped, “Prior to 9/11, I don’t think Double-You could have found Afghanistan on a MAP. And we know he STILL can’t spell it…”

   I get called right-wing by knee-jerk lefties, but it’s funny how they ignore my passionate arguments against corporations, and other stances I take that would make Rush Limbaugh’s cigar drop from his mouth in astonishment…

   No….but Bush IS to blame for us STILL being in Afghanistan when we should have wrapped it up years ago.

   And well we might have, if Dubya hadn’t sidetracked us into his war in Iraq, a country which was never involved in the 9/11 attacks

   BTW, it’s the Rush Limbaugh and the Wall Street Journal who spit on the graves of the 9/11 victims, not any of your imagined traitor scotty.

   And I would never call any of the neo-cons here knee-jerk righties, scotty….coz the knee jerk part would be a only a half truth.

    Karzai is exactly what “they” are looking for.

    “They” want a Natural Gas Pipeline to gop through Afghanistan. “They” wnat the pipeline to be secure. There are two ways of getting this.

    The first way is if “they” share the revenue of the pipeline so that the populace has a stake in the health of the pipeline. the pipeline provides the means for food and shelter and a rising standard of living for everyone.

    The second way is for “them” to get a guy who will be ruthless in his defense of the pipeline. Somebody in charge who will kill anybody who tries to mess with said pipeline.

    This second option is a lot less expensive, you only need to pay a billion dollars to one guy, who then distributes as little of it as he can while still getting the job done.

    The first option costs many billions of dollars and “they” would rather not spend those dollars on something so useless as human lives.

    Gotta have that gas. But why do we have the biggest reserves of NG in the world, according to T.Bones Pickins??

    It’s not a matter of “us” having that gas, it’s a matter of having something to sell to the Asian Subcontinent.

    There’s trillions of dollars to be made as cheaply as possible.

    Yes, we are practically afloat a gas bubble in this country.
