I'd like to see rino boy Sen. Graham have his office located in an Afghani village before putting any stock in his recommendation.

A leading GOP lawmaker on U.S. military policy says he wants American officials to consider establishing permanent military bases in Afghanistan.


Well, they have resources we want.
Who cares how many more lives it will cost?
Hopefully the voters will kick him out for a real conservative if he keeps up with that stuff.

Default Sen. Lindsay Graham (R-SC) wants permanent bases in Afghanistan

Well, of course. That would mean long term contracts for his corporate pals at Halliburton, Blackwater, etc.

I'd agree to Sen. Graham's proposal, if he can find a budget offset to pay for them. Otherwise, let him hang on his own petard.

You don't actually think they Iraqi's sold their own oil on the open market do you? You don't actually think the Iraqi's were transporting and distributing their own oil do you? You don't think the Iraqi's were actually seeing the money from the oil they sold do you, to build roads, hospitals, and fund the "re-building" of Iraq...if so where are those roads, buildings, hospitals, etc.?

We lost $9 billion of their money, in addition to $12 billion of ours...IN CASH.

That money...or oil...was indeed stolen.

I believe Mr Graham should put his body where his mouth is and join a patrol unit in Afghanistan.
