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?

We should declare victory and get out immediately. We will never win this war.

Victory? Really.
I agree with getting out now, but victory? That's a stretch.

They'll have to wait a while though, it'll take us a couple more years to steal all the oil from Iraq... oh wait, that never actually happened like liberals claimed it would.

[MIKEETC]

That sounds right. It will take that long to build their nation...

[Roaddog]

Surely nobody would be surprised by this.

We should give all of their females an AK with four 30 round clips each, say a prayer for them and get the hell out of Dodge.

You Conservatives would actually get more credit had you stolen the oil. That fact that we didn't steal any oil just makes Bush even MORE lame...to the extent that that's even possible!
