“What did John Kerry do now....”

Kerry is giving aid and comfort to the enemy, just as he did when he returned from Vietnam.

Some things never change.

It’s getting harder for me to consider taking a year contract there now.

"Gunfire heard in central Kabul, large plume of smoke rises over the city."

However large the plume of smoke is, it's not large enough.

Tet offensive.

Afghanistan IS becoming Obama’s Vietnam.

And Obama ironically, is becoming Nixon.

John Kerry has a Plahn. He always has a plahn but he can't tell us about his plahn because we might steal it.

My brother is in Afghanistan with General Dynamics....he now says Iraq was paradise.

[Captain Kirk]

I disagree. Obama is LBJ, not Nixon. Nixon pulled out the troops, Obama is putting more in and has put more in. True, he may not put as many in as Stanley Westmoreland McChystal wants but he is still more than meeting him half way.

Great, lol. Thanks for the further encouragment. The money might be too much to pass up, though.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

I fess up. I was mixing presidential metaphors.

Nixon, as in “enemies list”.

Sorry! On the upside tho...he say its really beautiful in the mountains, the night sky is amazing, right on top of you.

He is out of Bagram now, and at a FOB in the mountains, which is much more to his liking I guess.

For us at home...not so much.

I always held it in the back of my mind that reason #33 Bush launched the war in Iraq was to put a battle on the table we could actually win. Afghanistan might be the mother of all lost causes—especially with Obamsky at the helm.

This ain’t gunna get any better till the ROE is changed...

Yes, and GWB did not want Saddam and Sons sending their goons to Afghanistan, I heard they did not want Saddam looking over our shoulders with WMD.

What the heck has NATO been doing anyway? I thought they kind of took over years ago?
