President Barack Obama won’t walk away from the flagging war in Afghanistan, the White House declared Monday as Obama faced tough decisions – and intense administration debate – over choices that could help define his presidency in his first year as commander in chief.
Want to know why America isn’t pulling out of Afghanistan? Because America’s a real fucking country.
You see, a real fucking country continues to risk its citizens’ lives and money in pointless wars. A real fucking country changes the goals of the war from capturing Bin Laden to defeating the Taliban to protecting Afghan women to rebuilding the nation. A real fucking country tortures innocent civilians into giving false confessions. A real fucking country condemns Iran for election fraud while ignoring Afghanistan’s election fraud. A real fucking country promotes crazy people protesting health care and ridicules sane people protesting war.
That’s why America’s real fucking country. And that’s why they’re staying the course.

We should get the fuck out but we won’t. We will stay and it will be hung around Obama’s neck by the very people who are telling him he needs to send more troops.

@PoliShifter – Yep, it’s Vietnam all over again.
@nahummer – I would take The Daily Show behind a wall and impregnate it.
ZIRGAR says:
Oh, I don’t know. While the war is tragic, when we’ve killed all the Afghans we can send the crazies over there to occupy it, thus ridding this country of the dumbfucks who are making this bad over here, like Glenn Beck fans, Sean Hannity Fans, Rush Limbaugh fans, and so on and so forth.
Just a suggestion…

@Zirgar – I say we go over to Afghan after we kill all the civilians. I mean, how could you pass up free heroin and Afghan kush?
