After thinking longer and more slowly than Rodin's statue of the same name, Barack Obama finally decided that the best way to handle the war in Afghanistan is to reluctantly commit more troops...but only for 18 months, after which we'll get the hell out of Dodge.
Of course, this strategy will only work if the Taliban and Al Qaeda don't know we're going to give up in July of 2011. So please, help keep the president's big secret and don't tell the bad guys!
Why do you use such negative words like "giving up". Obama isn't giving up. As we pull out of Afghanistan our friends the Russians will be coming in to take our place. At first, it will be non military positions, but eventually they will split the whole area with the Iranians. Feel better?
