Vieira to Karzai: "A lot of Americans, here, are confused by this, what's going on Afghanistan. They say, 'Wait a minute, I thought we won that war, already and now the Taliban is back? What went wrong?' So I'm asking you sir-" Karzai: "We won." Vieira: "-what's gone wrong? You've won?" Karzai: "Yes, of course we won." Vieira: "What have you won?" Karzai: "The war against terrorism. The liberation of Afghanistan. These guys, the al Qaeda, Osama and their associates were running Afghanistan. Today you're talking to President Karzai, elected by the Afghan people." Vieira: "There's also killings everyday. So how do you reconcile that with this notion we've won?" Karzai: "We have won because we have defeated them from being the government, now they are the runaways. Outlaws. Hiding in the mountains, in caves."

Because there are killings we haven't won? Who ties her shoes for her? There were killings everyday in America after the revolutionary war to the present day, we never really won?

Apply this twit's "logic" to American cities like Detroit and New Orleans and explain to me what Democrat mayors have accomplished in the last 3 decades of rule and why the hell they keep getting elected.

[A CA Guy]

That means she will chat up defeat of Americans in Iraq endlessly since her statement and pride is now on the line.

[saganite]

By her definition we’ve lost the war on crime, the war on poverty, the war on illiteracy, etc etc etc.

[airborne]

Someone should mention to her that illegal Mexicans are killing Americans in larger numbers every day.

Maybe she’d like us to give back the western United States to Mexico.

[Slapshot68]

Apparently Karzai wasn’t briefed on the media’s defeatist agenda prior to the interview.

[PeterFinn]

Karzai probably would just love to send Viera to “interview” the Taliban.

Dear Meredith,

You are an idiot.

Meredith Vieira Sees U.S. Defeat in Afghanistan

Sounds like Meredith Vieira HOPES for U.S. Defeat in Afghanistan

[ryan71]

Using her logic, you can never win. Which is exactly how she wants it.

[wideawake]

A wannabe Sun Tzu in Jimmy Choos.

[avacado]

Using her logic the American Revolution was pointless.

[stm]

This woman is unqualified to hold an interview with a potted plant much less the President of Afghanistan. The last time this woman had an coherent thought President Reagan was still in office and it was just a fleeting one.

[RedRover]

Maybe she'd like us to give back the western United States to Mexico.

I'm sure she would.

[Albion Wilde]

Apparently hosting the daytime version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" was the top of her intellectual game.

Karzai: We won.

Viera: Is that your final answer?

[savedbygrace]

Not to mention the War on TV Programming.

;-)

[Fawn]

SHe is such a dumb broad. She should stick to game shows.

[Red Badger]

Exactly, The “War on Drugs”, the “War on Homelessness”........

[Red Badger]

Ol’ Sun Tzu would have set her straight in a Peking Minute!...........

[Red Badger]

Is that your final answer?............

[Chi-townChief]

I thought she was some kind of game show hostess.
