( Allow me to save your typing

1. other countries are just as bad---- >we cant be everywhere but we are here
2. Do we have to be there for another 20 years?---> No until we figure out what went wrong and fix it
3. They have to fix it themselves---> they cant
4. we shouldn't spill our blood and treasure----> Then what does the US stand for? If not this ,then what?
5. Its Bush's fault---> yes but we have to deal in the present
6.The Afghan army should have fought better----> I agree but they didn't, now what?
7. If they cant do it in 20 years ,they never will----> we don't know that
8. We dont owe those people anything---> If you feel that way, ok. I think we do.
9. Why dont you go?---> we have an Army already that can do the job..and they were doing the job
1o Thats where empires go to die---> Yes but we did more for these people than any empire ever did)

I know i'm a pariah with my views on this.
I'm sorry.
I'm just an old school bleeding heart liberal
