Linda and "Strawberries" welcome the newest member of their gang.
Graham is now and always has been. McCain’s sock puppet. PS: does anyone else remember that it was Graham’s nay vote in the house that kept Clinton from a full-on impeachment?
Uber RINO linda graham Ping
"Republican by day, Democrat by night."
Want on or off this ping list?
Just FReepmail me.
Let's go even further: There is nothing in that place worth the price of an American bomb or bullet, let alone the live of a single American.
We need to get the hell out of that place, let the b@$+@rd$ kill each other off --like they've been doing for thousands of years-- and focus American Blood and Treasure on real problem areas.
i can't think of any nation that Light-in-the-loafers Lindsey Graham wouldn't invade.
There’s NOTHING to win there. Bring our boys and girls home, seal it off, and forbid another Afghan to ever step foot on American soil again.
I can’t believe we are still there. I can’t believe we threw away so much blood and treasure. We should have treated that place and those people like the Japanese in the South Pacific during WWII. You know, like when we used to win wars?
“If the SENATE would stop obstructing PRESIDENT TRUMP’S agenda, he could move forward on Afghanistan and his agenda. I lay all blame at their feet.”
So someone needs to explain to me why Afghanistan is some “strategic political” plum. From all I can see, it’s just been a graveyard for foreign troops where all that is accomplished is a continuing slaughter with no actual purpose. We put up with that criminal Karzai for years, and all we got out of it was body bags and empty pockets.
clearly stupid. demonstrably wrong. 9/11 was a real “problem area”, and ignoring terrorist havens during The Clenis administration is how we got it.
people don’t seem to think stuff through any more before they start clicking off their dogmatic talking points.
Yes,they are genuine and are so kind as to allow Liz to channel her inner Blood Brother Cherokee Sam Houston(D). Some of the Afghanistan tribes have a similar ceremony—try it Liz.
so, we are treating it the same way. that's actually one of the problems.
These are not nice people.
If Graham is that concerned, I suggest that he gear up and go to Afghanistan and show us all how it is done. Never happen! He would get within a 1000 miles of a bullet being fired from a gun.
I’m no fan of lindsey graham, but he did deploy to both iraq and afghanistan as an Air Force reservist. now, he was a lawyer type, not a front line sort of guy . . . but he was there.
The several tens of thousands of people who annually make hundreds if thousands to millions of dollars off the opium and heroin trade would disagree with you as would the very few who are annually making hundreds of millions of dollars from the same trade.
Which begs the question why we allowed the opium crop to boom after the Taliban (the same 'religious students' we loved and lavished support on back when they were fighting the USSR) had all but eradicated the opium crops.
Anyone else find it rather interesting that our two longest wars, Vietnam and now Afghanistan, were fought at the focus of first the Golden Triangle and now the Golden Crescent?

I’ve said before on old threads...
Hit their poppy fields with napalm and remove their source of income that funds their leaders and fighters.
PS: does anyone else remember that it was Graham’s nay vote in the house that kept Clinton from a full-on impeachment?
*******************************
If true, it’s possibly the best vote by Graham. If he’d voted yea, we would have had Gore as POTUS.
o surprise that Linda Gspot and Johnny McPain would side with Fakeahontas and company...
Quitting is a military angle. Obama liked that one.
After 16 years,there is nothing left to “win” in Afghanistan.
Torch the opium fields, declare victory, and get our troops out of that hell hole.
The Taliban will be in control 10 days after we leave.
There is no reason on earth to spill one more drop of American blood, or sacrifice one more American leg or arm for these Muslim cetins.
Like Kenny Rogers opined, you have to know when to fold ‘em.
“Winning” in ALL its dimensions in Afghanistan is and has been no secret. The problems have for the most part NOT been U.S. policy as they have been a lack of a truly capable and truly committed Afghan government and population. When Afghans in sufficient numbers are committed to “winning” then even U.S. policy will not matter as much as that change. Until then, changes in U.S. policy, minus total WWII style occupation, will not be factors that change much in a war too many in Afghanistan are committed to dragging on.
In case anyone else wondered...
“Lead by Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain, the delegation included Democratic Sens. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island as well as Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and David Perdue of Georgia.”
or is it Weldon Shitehouse?
