Looks like Tommy is done with all of his retarded multiple replies now. Now I can respond.

It is now, as much as any one target or country can be identified. The war on terror, of course, is everywhere, but we can't have troops everywhere, can we? One step at a time. Afghanistan is step one...always has been.
Now you sound like a globalist. Where's your next target to invade? And the next, and the next and the next....No other targets too invade. Keep the pressure on al Qaeda and bin Laden. They are not a country, are they?

As for the Soviets, they were trying to keep the country a satellite, which we are not trying to do. We are not trying to subjugate the government of Afghanistan. Our issue is with al Qaeda and the Taliban.
You sound just like Bush.
This just keeps getting better/worse.Bush had the right idea in Afghanistan...he just did not follow it through. Iraq, alas, was a horrible mistake on his part from the get go. A mistake that you keep defending him on. Why is that?

I get the picture. You think it is good but don't care if they think it is good or not. You are one confused puppy.
Well fido, I don't drink the kool aid, YOU DO. Looks like you are ODing here.Oh boy, you sure showed me on that one, didn't you Tommy boy?
You said that Iraq agreeing with Obama's rough 16 month time frame was good news, then I pointed out how Bush and McCain would feel otherwise, then you said you did not care what they said (even though you support them down the line), I point out the discrepancy, and you do your "kool-aid" thing, which is what you
always do when you have no intelligent reply. That just about covers it.
Ruff, ruff.

I don't exactly know where he is, do you? If so, please send the coordinates to Bush now. Maybe he can drop a bomb on his head.
I don't either, but from what has been reported, he is in Pakistan. So what are you going to do? NUKE Pakistan? You're turning into quite the war monger. But then, you think lobbing missiles is a good idea.Nuke Pakistan? No, Tommy. War monger? Pretty tough language coming from a Bush supporter. Obama has said that if we have actionable intelligence about bin Laden's whereabouts in Pakistan and they won't act, we should. I support that.
So you think he should be allowed to go on his merry way???

Certainly interesting, but we'll see what happens once we are gone. They have been fighting for hundreds if not thousands of years. It's easy for the Shiites to say they will get along with the Sunni's once we are gone. Doing it will be another story.
Same thing can be said in Afghanistan, can it not?No. Afghanistan's civil war, which has had several phases, began in 1978. Before that, it was a monarchy.
Further, Afghanistan is 80% Sunni and 19% Shiite, whereas Iraq is (at least it was, many of the Sunni's have fled) 60-65% Shiite, and 32-27% Sunni, according to the CIA World Fact Book. Iraq is more prone to religious conflict, simply because the minority status is a higher percentage. Imagine Utah if 32-37% of the population was FLDS. Wouldn't that be fun!

Hmmm. So now now you think both the Iraq and Afghanistan wars are stupid. So tell me again, whey are you supporting McCain, the guy who has no plan (other than total victory, no matter how long it takes) to extricate us from EITHER war, and in fact pretty much wants to continue the status quo?
I don't like either canidate. But since you have to have a continual supply of kool aid, I understand YOUR SUPPORT.There's that "kool aid" comment again. Once again, that's Tommy for "I have no intelligent reply."
So you don't like either candidate, but you continue to defend Bush, support McCain, and bash Obama. Why is that? If you don't like either, you should be bashing both (or keeping your mouth shut), but you only bash Obama. I'm beginning to think it is not a political thing with you...it's beginning to sound more like a racial thing to me.
Are you a bigot, TommyK?
