The fight against terrorism is NOT a war and cant be won anymore than the WAR on drugs can be won. God, I hate when the right wing talking points are repeated by our leaders.:rant:

He is discussing what a "win" is, and it is radically different from what the RW thinks is a win. In fact, better that "our" leaders reclaim the "win" word and used it appropriately, as opposed to being accused of trying to lose.
