Congress can’t even function in this atmosphere, much less vote on a law that would actually do some good.

But I get it.

The Middle East is a shite hole and we can be spending money in a lot better places.

I know it’s early, but not one dipshit in here spewing why endless wars are a good thing.

Could this be the ever famed bipartisanship?

This will be an excellent point to bring up in the debates.

Why? Those savages haven’t stepped up to the plate in the 20 years we’ve been there begging them to. It’ll devolve into violence in short order, but let them deal with it. Enough American kids have died for those people.


Short of using multiple megatonnage to turn it into an obsidian parking lot (with the resulting radioactive cloud), Afghanistan is unwinnable. And it always will be. History has proven that it’s virtually unconquerable.

Of all the terrible consequences of Obama's presidency, perhaps the worst was the disintegration of the anti-war leftists and a press skeptical of foreign military interventions.

If anyone has any doubt about this statement, read:

Steven Pressfield: The Afghan Campaign

Afghanistan was an unconquerable shithole 2300 years ago, and it will still be one 2300 years from today.
