WATCH WOLF BLITZER NOW..4:45 EDT.... coming up will be
a military big shot saying that Afghanistan is going down the tubes........etc. I think this bodes well for Obama -- who has been saying we should send more troops in Afghanistan for several months now.


WATCH NOW! It is coming up

2. Not to mention Bush's 9000 troop 'reduction' sceduled for Iraq in January

Is actually a 9000 troop 'redeployment' to
Afghanistan. In other words no troops are
coming home. Ad to that, Pakistan is entering
a state of civil war and the situation is
obvious.

The shit is about to meet the fan in the Stans.

3. No glee in this.
We'd rather win a war than an election.

4. Sorry to bum you out but
"bodes well for Obama" is not a good way to parse the war in Afghanistan. People dying in war does not "bode well" for anyone.

5. I'm not so sure about that..
You would think that over 4,000 dead soldiers and over a million dead Iraqi's wouldn't bode well for the Republicans, but American people have no problem with that. War here, war there, war everywhere!!
