End the calendar shuffle and BRING THE TROOPS HOME NOW INCLUDING THE HIGH PRICED CONTRACTORS.

I contact the President every week via his website, urging our President to get out of Afghanastan.
We need this money to help our people here at home. Think about this kind of money would do for us!
Lately, I contact Alan Grayson frenquently to urge him, and thanks for his effort.
The pentagon continues deals will war contractors and we pay the bill. (Excuse me, it will follow our children, too)
What they are thinking, who knows. It looks like a war for the sake of war. If Obama doesn't grt a handle on the pentagon, last term for one term President.

This happens all the time with this administration.
You would think that an outfit based on PR, steeped in PR, could keep the message straight.
It is pretty much like all the PR guys think they're in charge of the message and there isn't anyone really in charge of the message.

How is this different from Tim Geithner's muddying of the president's message about the banking restrictions that is bound to make them smaller? Either the president is held hostage by a bunch of crazies, or they don't know what the hell they're doing, or everyone in the administration is an empty suit.

The US isn't going anywhere. The empire needs to protect its precious poppy fields.

Give it back to the Taliban with certain conditions.. that's what Obama has ordered McChrystal to do!!

We will have gained NOTHING. It is essentially what we did after the CIA did following the Russian retreat.

It's called hedging your bet
