If Mitt is volunteering to go to Afghanistan for 20 years, I’d be happy, but if he wants to stay longer, I won’t complain.

You called it. And no one Mittens cares about will be killed in Afghanistan.

Rotten piece of filth.

“M” in Utah is pronounced as if it where “Sch”. In Utah, “Mool” is pronounced as “school” and “Mitt” is pronounced as “Schitt”.

Ah, the RINO speaketh.
Shove it Mittens.
Shove it often.
Shove it deep.
It’s the ONLY thing your little brain can manage.
That is, if you can find your Obamahole to shove it in.

Yep.

I sent a lot of care packages over the years using anysoldier.com

I was amazed at the stories of lack of supplies, etc.

I got a good feeling when I saw pics of my packages in a group being airlifted. i could always tell because I wrapped them to withstand being dropped from a helicopter while others barely had any tape.

It’s a hell hole

We need to get out

When your war, sorry “police action”, is older than some of the soldiers fighting in it you’re doing something wrong.

You’re right, it is impossible to win Afghanistan with the West’s “conventional war“. Anyone who wants to conquer Afghanistan will have to approach it with the attitude of the Mongols and commit genocide with population replacement. since we’re never gonna be willing to do that let’s get the F out.

"National Guard Lt. Anthony Circosta poses in his backyard in Agawam, Mass., on June 9, 2007.
At left, his wife Danielle and daughter Kylie, 2, talk near the swing set. Circosta,
a decorated Iraq War veteran, seemed like an ideal candidate for a pardon from
then-Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney for the 29-year-old's boyhood conviction
for a BB gun shooting. Romney denied the pardon,
twice, despite the recommendation of the Governor's Council.

Doubtful Romney knows WTF he’s talking about — except for his hatred of Trump.
