Ask A General? Get A War.
Sometimes things seem oddly simplistic to me that appear to go right over everybody else's head. Try this one: If you have a problem, and you take it to an architect, he will design you a building. If you take the problem to a doctor, he will write you a prescription; to a warden, he will improve security. There is a broad presumption that in matters of foreign affairs, particularly with nations hostile to us, the military assessment of the situation should prevail. If you take your problem to a general, he will recommend you start a war, and tell you how to run it. If entering a war was ill-advised in the beginning, then to make talk of leaving it into heresy, defeatism, or treason is doubly foolish. Now we hear them saying after eight years of George Bush's accomplishments in Afghanistan, we are losing Obama's War.

Now the Republicans have what they needed, a way to get out of Darth Cheney and JarJar Bush's idiotic attempt to conquer Afghanistan by invasion without looking like they lost. Obama lost.
